In August of last year the Lord used the youth group of Grace Baptist Church of Middletown, Ohio to help us get about 200 contacts for starting a new church, and since that time we have been visiting and starting bible studies with some of those contacts. In March of this year we brought the Bible studies together and formed Mission Baptist Church in the district of San Borja.

Well, I would like to say that I apologize for getting behind and not posting updates here lately. I will try to do better at staying up with it so that you can be better informed to how the ministry is going. There is a lot to update you about so I will post several different articles so that you can be reading about all that the Lord is doing.

Our family would like to wish you all a Happy New year. We trust you had a joyous Christmas as we celebrated the birth of our Lord and Saviour. I really believe the hardest part about being in a foreign country is the fact that during special times of the year you cannot be with your family, but I love this time of the year because it allows us to reflect on the past year and it allows us to focus on the year to come. We trust that this year each and every person will commit to taking their spiritual lives to the next level. Their is a lot to do in this coming year, but if we are not abiding in Christ than it will all be in vain. Thank you for your prayers and support. We appreciate each and every one that has some part in helping get the gospel to Lima and the regions beyond.
