In
early August, a group of about thirty of us from e3 Partners will be going to Peru
to work with local missionaries and church members to build the church there.
We will be reaching out to neighbors in underprivileged communities to invite them
to attend home-groups where their faith and fellowship can grow. We will be training local leaders to continue
these groups long after we are gone and connect those who are interested with
local churches. While there, we will be holding Bible studies, offering to pray
for needs and sharing testimonies and the gospel message. There will be sports
programs to connect with the local youth as well as children’s daily meetings where
they can play with others and learn about God’s love for them.
Families
often go on these trips and they are very valuable for helping young people to
know what they believe and how to share it with others. We are headed to an
area about 5 hours outside of Lima (Peru’s capital). Many there do not have
access to good local churches, do not attend church regularly, or do not have a
good and vibrant relationship with the Lord.
Last
year about 40 of us went on a similar trip with e3 Partners to Ecuador where over
1000 people asked to pray with us to put their faith in Jesus for the promise
of eternal salvation and they gave us their contact information to pass on to local
church leaders so that they could follow up with them.
We hope to experience the privilege of seeing God bring salvation to others and make a strategic impact on many lives. On top of that, we plan to have a blast!
If you would like to partner with us and pray for us while
we are away or contribute financially, please let me know; or, you can contribute
here.
Thank you for considering how we can help reach those in
Peru who need to know God’s love for them!
