Greetings! I’m writing from a plane over Chile. We are going to the second part of our survey trip down here with Denis and Leanne. They serve on our staff and are praying about a specific burden for the people of Chile.
This has been a busy(as usual) time in life and ministry. Our boys are taking their last tests of the school year today!!! They(and we) are thrilled. So we have finished another school year, we have a little under 300 kids all together from K4-11th grade. They are all excited about the “summer” break until January.

Since we had the foundation wash out for one of our higher retaining walls, there has been lots of work getting ready to build a better wall. The guys have been working hard and we are hopefully getting a small excavator in there over the next couple of days to bust up and pull out the washed out foundation. It’s a big project, the location on the property makes it inconvenient but we are encouraged to get it finished up as soon as possible over the next few weeks if possible.

We had a bout of health struggles for a few weeks with Isaí, our youngest at 10 yrs old. He seems to be doing much better now. Also Micah, 14 yrs old, had a bad cold that seemed like it was getting into his lungs, he has had that problem before, but he also seems to be responding very well to the treatment and it seems the worst is behind us. So we are very grateful for how God takes care of us.

We have had LOTS of outreach lately. We were part of an outreach for helping people get custom wheelchairs according to their need. We shared the gospel with everyone who came through and some nearly 20 saved there.
Also we have been preaching in police stations across our country and are getting reports EVERY DAY of the Gospel being shared across our countries as we coordinate with many local pastors.
On Wednesday we were able to go into our local government office and provide a breakfast and a gospel message to about 60 of the administrative staff. I was here in Chile but our team of volunteers did a great job 🙂
Thanks for the prayers and support.
We are excited about this upcoming project of getting a Bible to every member of the armed forces here as well.

We are doing great down here! Full speed ahead as usual.

This has been an exceptionally busy time as I have been in meetings and plans with the police chaplains to get the Bibles into the hands of all of our police. Also we have been able to go to 2 different local police stations and present a NT to each officer, a full Bible to the Jefe and the plan of salvation clearly explained for all. They all hear a clear presentation of the Gospel and have a chance to respond in a prayer time, though we can’t actually have a come forward invitation, it wouldn’t work well in that situation as they are all in formation and can’t really respond or move, but God can certainly touch their hearts.
With that we are cranking up a great plan to get these Bibles presented to every officer in the country with the plan of salvation. It is fun trying to connect pastors, chaplains and police across our country.

This week we are having a seminary class, Intro to missions taught by Dr. JB Godfrey. It has been an incredible time so far with nearly 50 students taking the class in person and nearly a dozen more online.

We are planning to host a church group from Minnesota next week and have a national level youth conference at the tail end of the week. It’s fun to mix several activities all together 🙃

Blessed to see the Lord working. Praying for more fruit along the way.

We are starting into raining season which has turned into a blessing. We are having consistent problems with our water supply from the city, but during rainy season we can gather up the rain water and use that for many of our water tanks that feed the bathrooms and our non-drinking water supply. One way or another, God provides 😁
