In the last month before we left to go on furlough, we were approached twice by people who want a Baptist Church there. We helped with a Bible study until we returned from furlough. UPDATE: As of July 09 there is a national missionary who is starting a church in this city. We have provided Bibles and monetary support. http://rich2peru.com/photos/album12 5a337c865ba948f6afea84a64e8b1172 Tue, 24 Aug 2010 15:33:56 -0400 http://rich2peru.com/photos/view_comments.php?set_albumName=album12 http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album12/P1040798.thumb.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album12/P1040798.sized.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album12/P1040798.thumb.jpg 5 wonderful and fruitful years serving in our first work, Iglesia Bautista Calvario (Calvary Baptist Church). It was a great celebration of hearing the Word, praising in song, fellowship and of course... food. We had at least 136 attending one of the services! http://rich2peru.com/photos/new_building cff6f8f5b68566b859a3c1e7f12b3458 Tue, 24 Aug 2010 11:43:17 -0400 http://rich2peru.com/photos/view_comments.php?set_albumName=new_building http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/new_building/P1030324.thumb.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/new_building/P1030324.sized.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/new_building/P1030324.thumb.jpg After months of paperwork, planning, and persistence we began the construction of our new building. When completed, this will house the main church building, the Bible Institute and the Christian school. Check back often to see the progress as we watch God's hand at work. The most recent pictures will be on the last pages. http://rich2peru.com/photos/album09 c4a7d6e13779579c7dc491afcb38e036 Wed, 11 Aug 2010 09:15:50 -0400 http://rich2peru.com/photos/view_comments.php?set_albumName=album09 http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album09/P1010509.thumb.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album09/P1010509.sized.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album09/P1010509.thumb.jpg God keeps blessing and we keep baptizing.

It is used for open air ministry to show Christian videos to attract people to hear the Gospel. There are sub albums of several presentations. It would take too much space to post pictures of everywhere the unit is being used. MANY people have been reached with the Gospel and are now brothers and sisters in Christ. http://rich2peru.com/photos/album07 e48eaaf8f564525a980b8c9f6027259f Thu, 17 Jun 2010 12:19:22 -0400 http://rich2peru.com/photos/view_comments.php?set_albumName=album07 http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album07/P1030162.thumb.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album07/P1030162.sized.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album07/P1030162.thumb.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/album32 5bdd3772317f4dd4de57724a078b1295 Thu, 17 Jun 2010 11:54:01 -0400 http://rich2peru.com/photos/view_comments.php?set_albumName=album32 http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album32/IMG_4338.thumb.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album32/IMG_4338.sized.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album32/IMG_4338.thumb.jpg We were invited to this PUBLIC SCHOOL to show a movie to the farmers and their families in this remote area http://rich2peru.com/photos/album31 8e487a8f115e5390e337a828b7c67ffc Thu, 17 Jun 2010 11:53:31 -0400 http://rich2peru.com/photos/view_comments.php?set_albumName=album31 http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album31/IMG_4135.thumb.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album31/IMG_4135.sized.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album31/IMG_4135.thumb.jpg We have been praying about starting a work here.

It lasted 5 days and we saw up to 84 kids attend each day. Praise the Lord for at least 20 who made decisions for Christ this week! http://rich2peru.com/photos/album25 b9be126b7bd194c12c80467bc1f8965b Thu, 28 Jan 2010 12:26:48 -0500 http://rich2peru.com/photos/view_comments.php?set_albumName=album25 http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album25/IMG_0515.thumb.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album25/IMG_0515.sized.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album25/IMG_0515.thumb.jpg We were surprised by an unannounced visit from Peruvian President Alan Garcia to the newly opened government building in our small town. I was at the old government building next door when he arrived. I quickly called Carla and asked her to bring our camera. I got these pictures of him leaving after his brief meeting with government officials. http://rich2peru.com/photos/youth-mission a2041429f0a91561c11af03bfc01b264 Thu, 28 Jan 2010 11:51:59 -0500 http://rich2peru.com/photos/view_comments.php?set_albumName=youth-mission http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/youth-mission/P1000173.thumb.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/youth-mission/P1000173.sized.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/youth-mission/P1000173.thumb.jpg We took nine of our youth (15yrs old and up) on an eleven day missions trip using our Mobile Ministry Unit. They sang, performed dramas, passed out thousands of tracts, witnessed, and did a great job setting up and breaking down the projection unit. At least 55 SOULS WERE WON TO THE LORD during this trip. http://rich2peru.com/photos/Quincea%F1era c0f94c0822cc82cf7933606588a969ba Wed, 27 Jan 2010 23:10:56 -0500 http://rich2peru.com/photos/view_comments.php?set_albumName=Quinceañera http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/Quincea%F1era/IMG_3982.thumb.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/Quincea%F1era/IMG_3982.sized.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/Quincea%F1era/IMG_3982.thumb.jpg This is a big tradition in the Latin community that resembles a wedding. Many families save for years so they can have a nice 15th birthday party for their daughter. We praise the Lord that this family in our church were good stewards but still had a beautiful time for her. The worldly version can be quite a party but our church made sure it was God-honoring. http://rich2peru.com/photos/christmas09 c4420ec8e74c284865527fddda549550 Wed, 27 Jan 2010 23:10:26 -0500 http://rich2peru.com/photos/view_comments.php?set_albumName=christmas09 http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/christmas09/IMG_4893.thumb.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/christmas09/IMG_4893.sized.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/christmas09/IMG_4893.thumb.jpg The members of our church did a great job planning and executing a wonderful Christmas celebration. The youth sang and did a play. In the evening, the Adults performed a Cantata. We are so proud of their growth and willingness to serve our Lord. http://rich2peru.com/photos/Our-Daughter-Christas-Wedding-11-28-09 4346c5dcaa65d3db5ba626a5cb1ae7ba Mon, 21 Dec 2009 17:15:56 -0500 http://rich2peru.com/photos/view_comments.php?set_albumName=Our-Daughter-Christas-Wedding-11-28-09 http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/Our-Daughter-Christas-Wedding-11-28-09/IMG_4702.thumb.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/Our-Daughter-Christas-Wedding-11-28-09/IMG_4702.sized.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/Our-Daughter-Christas-Wedding-11-28-09/IMG_4702.thumb.jpg Christa was married on Thanksgiving weekend to Stephen Sapp. They met in college.

It was a great time of growth and fellowship. We had comments from the wives of a big difference they were seeing in their homes. For the last class, Carla made hot wings for us all. They had never had them but ate them up! They are a great group of guys. http://rich2peru.com/photos/album34 7d47c30c06983ee0da589500b3d0e458 Mon, 12 Oct 2009 18:17:43 -0400 http://rich2peru.com/photos/view_comments.php?set_albumName=album34 http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album34/DSC03363.thumb.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album34/DSC03363.sized.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album34/DSC03363.thumb.jpg After driving around 40 hrs on a trip to Lima and back, the left wheel of the trailer came off in a remote area around 12,000 ft in the Andes Mountains. http://rich2peru.com/photos/album26 871fe715129e4e8e809ba3509185c7a2 Tue, 18 Aug 2009 10:09:34 -0400 http://rich2peru.com/photos/view_comments.php?set_albumName=album26 http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album26/IMG_3668.thumb.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album26/IMG_3668.sized.jpg http://rich2peru.com/photos/albums/album26/IMG_3668.thumb.jpg 4 yrs of seeing many come to know the Lord and watching them grow.
