<span style="text-align: justify;">A group of five of us from Calvary Baptist here
in Helena, MT met up with our friends Bryan and Brad from Mount Vernon Baptist
of Atlanta in a small hostel in the center of Lima, Peru. I was in Cusco for a few days prior to visit our church. Everyone was doing very well. We were all together
to teach for a week at another Reforming Peru conference in the jungle town of
Pichanaki. We took the twelve hour night bus from Lima to Pichanaki, which
involved starting on the coast, ascending a 14,500 foot mountain pass over the
Andes, and then descending a lengthy stretch of switchbacks to the heat and
humidity of the jungle.</span></div>

<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We partner with a Peruvian brother named Roric,
who is the pastor of a church in Pichanaki, which he planted about four years
ago. Roric is amazingly sound in doctrine, understands the Ashaninca culture,
and is one of the most capable and well-organized Peruvians we know. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">After not sleeping much on the bus, we arrived
Saturday morning and spent the day resting, preparing for the conference, and
getting to know the town of Pichanaki. They happened to be having a coffee
festival for all the coffee exporters in this area of the jungle. We drank
coffee and ate chancho de palo (a whole pig roasted on a rack at the edge of a
fire).<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">I preached at Roric’s church (Grace Bible
Church) on Sunday morning, and then we discussed the conference details,
cleaned the conference building (which was an old garage) and then ate dinner
at the house of a brother named Abram. Abram turned out to be an animal lover
of sorts. After dinner he brought out a little boa constrictor snake that he
kept in a fanny pack. He threw it on the table for us all to play with. He then
brought out a sloth, scarlet macaw, and finally a 25 year old boa constrictor
that was quite large, maybe six feet. Some members of our party, especially one
man, was not fond of snakes, in fact, he was turned out to be deathly afraid of
them. As the snake came in, the fearless preacher ran out the back door, but a
big dog that was guarding the door hindered his retreat. The whole scene was
quit amusing and we all, well most of us, laughed about it for some time after.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Monday brought the first day of the conference.
The Ashanincas, who traveled for one or two days from the villages, arrived on
time. Each conference attendee received a book on 20 Christian Beliefs by Wayne
Grudem, a notebook, and a Spanish Bible. We had about 25 people in attendance
each day. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The conference teaching on the Local Church and Holiness seemed to be
going well. At the end of each day, for the last two hours, we had a question and
answer period where they could ask any question. The questions the first few
days are usually not about the teaching from the day but come from what they
have been struggling with for the months before the conference. For example,
one question was this:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">“A man and a woman are not married, but they
have been living together for many years and have four children together. The
woman becomes a Christian and wants to be baptized but she is still living in
fornication because she is not married. She asked the father of their children,
who is not a Christian, to marry her, but he refused to do it. Should the wife
be baptized? Should she leave this man? Who should take care of the kids? Is
she still living in sin if she stays with him for the sake of the kids?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">

common one in Peru. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We continued teaching on the church and
holiness on Tuesday and Wednesday. The question and answer time is always my
favorite, and maybe the most useful to the Ashaninca leaders. The following
questions are only a few of the many that were asked:<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">After hearing questions like “who are Adam and
Eve?” we decided to adjust the teachings. We realized they did not understand
so much of what we were teaching. Even though we have taught it many times over
the last 4 years, we taught again on the gospel. The last two days we taught
them what the gospel is by using four points to explain it: God, Man, Jesus,
Response. The last few days were very interactive and they seemed to get it. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The conference ended well. We learned a lot
about the Ashaninca and how we can better teach them the Scriptures. Roric will
be going into the villages every month or so to re-teach what we taught at this
conference. We were reminded again that only the Holy Spirit can make men
understand the truth of the Scriptures, no matter how good it is explained. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">I know I was frustrated at the end of the third
day because of their lack of understanding something we have been teaching them
for years, but I was encouraged to press on, trust in God, keep teaching the
truth, and beg God to enlighten their understanding. I was encouraged that we
now have a conference where Ashaninca men and women will travel two days to
listen to the word of God be taught for a week. Only a short time ago we were
the first white men in these villages and we were not very welcome. God has
done so much in a short period of time and we trust in Him to complete the good
work that He started.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

We have been getting settled and enjoying the summer with our family since we have arrived at the end of June. Levi and his family drove up from California to spend the month of July with us, and Chase drove from Kansas to spend three weeks with us. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Like always, time flies by and we have been busy. We love our church, <a href="http://www.calvaryhelena.com/" target="_blank">Calvary Baptist</a>, in Helena and we are so grateful that they gave us the church parsonage to live in. The transition has went amazingly well. We are so grateful to our kind and gracious God. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The church in Cusco continues to thrive while both us and the Martinez family are in the States. Joe and family return to Cusco at the end of August to continue on with the church. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I am excited to be going back to Peru on August 23rd to visit my dear brothers and sisters in our church in Cusco, as well as to participate in another<a href="https://youtu.be/ieBPNBY-TIs?list=PLOkVF0hCDFQpxLU04BYq8RCMDbd30XsuQ" target="_blank"> Reforming Peru</a> conference in the jungle. A group from our church in Helena, <a href="http://www.calvaryhelena.com/" target="_blank">Calvary Baptist</a>, will be joining our good friends at <a href="http://www.mvbchurch.org/" target="_blank">Mount Vernon Baptist</a> church in Atlanta to teach the Ashaninka people about the local church and holiness. A group of Peruvian brothers are making a trip to the villages right now to gather up the Ashaninka people for the conference. We are expecting a large turn out this fall. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Below is the schedule and prayer list. We really beg your prayers for this conference. </div>

I must say that the conference in the jungle this past week was very good, but I am so glad to be back in our church in Cusco. God is really doing a great work here. We are seeing people saved, a tremendous amount of spiritual growth within the members, triple the people in our prayer meetings, and a full building each Sunday. We were maxed out this Sunday for space. Wehrner is really improving in his preaching and has just started a series on the book of Ruth. It is so great to see the Word of God being made effectual in the brothers and sisters here.</div>

The <a href="http://www.reformingperu.com/" target="_blank">Reforming Peru</a> conference in Satipo went very well. There were four Ashaninka villages represented, as well as many leaders from churches in the area of Satipo. Scott Dollar taught 20 basic doctrines and Rob Aldridge from Calvary Baptist in Helena, MT taught on worship. I taught on Justification, Adoption, Sanctification, and Perseverance, as well as translated for Rob. Rebecca, Rob's wife, is a doctor. She did a mini medical campaign for two hours a day. Every person was seen and treated during the week.<br />
<br />
It took 12 hours to arrive to Satipo by a questionable bus from Lima, and it was very hot. We taught from 9am to 5pm each day from Monday through Friday. Martin Manchego, our Peruvian friend from Lima preached on Sunday morning at Miguel's church, and did a lot of filming to make a promotional video for Reforming Peru. The video should be out in June. Our brother Walter Isse, who is a pastor in Lima, translated all week for Scott Dollar. I also brought along a brother from our church in Cusco.<br />

At the end of every day we had a session of questions and answers for several hours. The people came up with some very interesting questions. Through these questions and answers we learn a lot about the heretical teachings of a variety of cults that occupy this part of the jungle. For example, we discovered some crazy end times teachings. The people had a lot of questions about the end times because there is a crazy group that is traveling all over the jungle from village to village teaching about the anti-christ. They have a video identifying the anit-christ as the United States government and the Peruvian government. Apparently they teach that if the villages accept help from the government then they are accepting the mark of the beast. Sadly, many villages are signing a document that says they refuse all help from the government. Scott Dollar taught for four hours on the end times, but they seemed to be slow to grasp it. We find that we need to constantly re-teach certain doctrines every conference.<br />

We also had some funny questions. One Ashaninka man asked if they can all bathe naked together in the river. Later we found he was asking the question because he wanted permission look at naked women. One guy introduced his question like this: "I have a hard question that I cannot find an answer to. It is very controversial and difficult." He then went on in his introduction for some time. He finally asked the question, which was: "What is the first day of the week?"<br />
<br />
Our friend Roric, who is a pastor in Pichinaki (about 45 minutes from Satipo), preached in the plaza on Wednesday night. He did very well. We all shared the gospel after. I shared the gospel with a man who was very affected by the preaching. He said he has never heard the gospel explained like we explained it. Another guy, a homeless man named Juan, was affected and came to the conference the rest of the week. He was taken care of medically, with meals, and a bus ticket back to Lima. He said that in all his time being homeless, not one person has ever helped him or gave him anything.<br />

We are seeing God do a great work in the church in Cusco. It seems, after years of labor, we are seeing good fruit. Recently about 17 people from the church gathered for an "all night" prayer meeting. We read the book of 1 Peter, meditated on the Word, sang many songs, prayed a lot, and had great fellowship from about 8:00pm to 1:00pm.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

One of the greatest joys for us personally is the salvation of our daughter Raegan. About 10 months ago, through the preaching of the Word, Raegan was convicted of her sin. She responded in faith and repentance that were both a gift from God. We, and the elders of the church, have been watching and encouraging her for the last 10 months. We really wanted to see fruits of conversion in her life. I believe God has made it clear in many ways that Raegan has been born again. She told her testimony in Spanish in front of the church last week. She was nervous, but did a great job. This is her testimony:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>I grew up in a Christian home. Every Sunday I was in church, but not because I wanted to be there. I knew the Bible, having been taught it basically my whole life. I had memorized Scripture. I believed in God, and I had heard how He saves His people. But it hadn't been made effectual. The sermons and teachings I was hearing of this Sovereign Lord went in one ear and out the other. I knew them, but I didn't believe them.
About ten months ago, the Lord used a sermon to awaken my spirit. It was through the Word of God that the Holy Spirit began stirring inside of me, and everything that I had been taught or learned finally clicked. It wasn't my own doing, but the Lord's. I don't know the exact moment that I was saved. Over time God slowly removed the cover over my eyes, and I could see. I could see this loving and just God, and His hatred of my sin. I began to understand how ugly and wicked of a sinner I am. I understood my need for a Savior, the Savior, Jesus Christ. I know that He died on the cross in my place for my sin. I believe this, I put my faith in Him, and I was saved.
It's so humbling to know that the Lord chose me, a sinner, before the foundation of the world to become His child. It's amazing to think of the events that happened, and the circumstances He used to draw me to Him. I had heard The Gospel basically my entire life, and yet on that day, about ten months ago in a small church in Cusco, Peru, the Lord saved me. It was in His perfect timing.
I don't know what the future has for me. I don't know where I will be or what I will be doing. I don't even know how much time I have left on this Earth, or if I even have a future. Regardless, my goal for my life is to seek the will of the Lord, and to glorify Him in whatever circumstances or situations I find myself in.
“To Him be the glory forever and ever.”

About 40 of us took a bus to a Baptist camp outside of Cusco to have a church picnic and baptize Raegan along with another man in the church named Miguel. God has done a great work in Miguel. He also told his testimony in front of the church. He is around 60 years old and has been coming to the church faithfully for several years. He first came to the church through a member, Jair, who shared the gospel with him at his workplace. We have seen a great change in his life. He constantly reads the Bible, books at a time. He said that people all around him ask what happened to him because he is not the same man. The non-Christians in his life are stunned at his radically changed life. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We are so happy and grateful to God that He allows us the great privilege of sharing the gospel and seeing people swept into the Kingdom. Check out the video of the baptisms below:</div>

I wanted to give a short update on the church in Cusco. God seems to be doing a great work in the people. We have all our documents in order and we operate by our constitution. We have established membership and the congregation really understands it and takes it serious. We have everything in place to train future leaders, and we have several men that will potentially be trained. The culture of the church is changing as well. The members are more active in and outside of the church. Our prayer meeting has doubled in size this year.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We are introducing a new member on Easter. His name is Bernabe. He is a young man, sound in doctrine, filled with great zeal for God and holiness, and he is active in evangelism and the church. We have several others who have been regularly attending the church from 4 months to 2 years. They are faithful, but earlier it did not seem like God had saved them yet, however, as of recently, we have seen great changes in their lives and a new love for God, the Scriptures, and the church. We will continue to teach and watch them, but it seems God is working in them in a big way. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-I3DnXqUI-tc/VutEi6BqjpI/AAAAAAAACGk/jK6JEG8LgbYDIjlwdJXGWY4KshUhWYuVQ/s1600/IMG_1373.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="298" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-I3DnXqUI-tc/VutEi6BqjpI/AAAAAAAACGk/jK6JEG8LgbYDIjlwdJXGWY4KshUhWYuVQ/s400/IMG_1373.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There are so many exciting things happening in the church this year. We started three home groups, where Joe, Werner, and I each lead one in our homes. The church loves the home groups and they are very dedicated to them. We are studying the book of John and having super good fellowship. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We will be doing a lot of street evangelism on the two days before Easter to invite people to the church for Easter service. Please be in prayer of this, that God would make His Word effectual in the hearts of His people.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Another thing to start praying for is the May conference in the jungle. We will be doing the leadership training conference in Satipo again from May 23-27th. I will give more details as we get closer. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Our church in Cusco just finished up a four day medical campaign. Joe Martinez organized a group of doctors through his mission to come to Cusco and help us with our ministry by doing a campaign. In the four days of the campaign we served around 500 people in Simataucca (The Quechua village near our land), in the juvenile detention center in Cusco, and at our church. It was a busy, but a God glorifying, week. Everyone heard the gospel in some way, whether through the preaching in the mornings, the one-on-one conversations, or by the gospel tracks that everyone received. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We find these medical campaigns to be a good way to build trust with people who we are trying to reach, to share the gospel, and to open doors for future work. All the kids of the church were helping as well. Christian, Micah, Wehrner's twins, Raegan and Emmy did everything from translating to fitting people for eye-glasses. Emmy filled prescription bags and Raegan, who translated for the dentist for two days, even pulled a few teeth! Check out the video below to get a glimpse of the campaign.<br />

Like everyone else we have been busy as we approach Christmas. We had several events at the church that went very well. The women of the church had a Christmas party, which had a great turn out with great fellowship.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We also had a Chocolatada, which is basically a church Christmas party. A Chocolatada usually involves panatón (a Peruvian fruit cake), hot chocolate, and gifts for the kids. We had a tremendous turnout, almost 100 people showed up, which was way beyond the capacity of our church building. Wehrner started out preaching the gospel in a short message concerning the birth of Christ. After, Anthony Olson and his family with their Bible club kids put on a Christmas program. We sang a few songs and then broke out the hot chocolate, panatón and presents for the kids. It was a little chaotic, but good fun and fellowship. Here are some pictures below.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Kiz8fV4on5g/Vh1jo7AwSBI/AAAAAAAACA0/NEknnqSdmYY/s1600/unreached.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Kiz8fV4on5g/Vh1jo7AwSBI/AAAAAAAACA0/NEknnqSdmYY/s640/unreached.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Over the years of taking the gospel to the unreached indigenous groups of the Amazon, I have often received criticism from people. Most of these people are not Christians and they have a completely different world view. For example, a few years ago I received this comment on a <a href="https://youtu.be/K87U7X1w048?list=PLOkVF0hCDFQpxLU04BYq8RCMDbd30XsuQ" target="_blank">You Tube video</a> from a guy named Mike Hunt:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>You should leave these people alone....They're fine without you....They probably have more to teach you....600 years of Conquistadores and it's still going on..Why not let them be who and what they are??...white folks destroyed the indigenous folks in N.America now you searching them out in Peru?....Got to Detroit, or the Bronx or something....</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I will attempt to answer the question of why we go to the unreached.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Why do we go to the unreached with the gospel?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It is a good question. First of all I must say that it is not easy to go to the unreached, nor is it a fun vacation. The people are unreached for good reason. To arrive in these places is very dangerous in many aspects and they are very hard to get to. Sometimes we must travel by plane, bus, truck, boat, canoe, and by foot, for several days just to get to the villages. On these trips almost nothing goes as planned. Plans change because of the weather, people, trails, transportation, and superstitions. To get out of the jungle we are often dependent on hitching rides on cargo boats that may or may not travel upriver that day. The unreached places of the jungle are the last strongholds of the terrorists, who would gladly kill us or take us for ransom if we are found. The same threats come from the innumerable drug traffickers that rule the jungle. If the people do not put us in danger, the jungle itself does. It seems that everything from the smallest bacteria to the giant Anaconda snakes want to kill you. Even things like ants can be deadly. A bite from a particular ant can produce the greatest pain known on earth, and eventually lead to death. So why do we go to these places? It is certainly not for the adventure.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I can answer the question in one sentence. <b>We go to these unreached people in difficult places because we love God and we love them. </b><br />
<br />
<b>We love God </b>which causes us to glorify Him by obey the great commission. Someone must go to all nations and make disciples, teaching them to observe all the Jesus taught. In our love for God, we want to see the Kingdom of Christ advance and His name made famous among the nations. In our love for God we want to see Him worshiped by every tribe, tongue, and nation. <br />
<br />
<b>We also love people.</b> We understand that all these unreached people are slaves to sin and will be in Hell when they die unless they hear the gospel and respond to it in faith and repentance. We understand that faith comes from hearing the word of God. If missionaries do not go to the unreached people of the world to preach the good news, they will never be able to respond to the good news. We have good news! Why would we selfishly hoard this cure for death in our own homes?<br />
<br />
In my experience of working with the indigenous tribes in the Amazon, I have found that God has given His people a thirst for Him. The Christians hunger for the Word of God. Whenever we travel to these faraway places, we are welcomed and treated very well because the people are so grateful that we are with them. Grown men are often overwhelmed to the point of tears that we cared about them enough to come and teach them the Word of God. These dear brothers and sisters beg us to come more frequently to teach them. They have been abandoned. Their kids die of malaria and other jungle hazards. Their kids are often killed for their organs by the organ traffickers. They drug traffickers and terrorists steal their food and animals, and rape their women. They are the bottom of the barrel. Everyone takes advantage of them. They live in fear of men and spirits. They live without hope.<br />
<br />
Why don't we leave these people alone and let them be who they are? Because we love God and we love them. They are not fine without God and His Word. They are dying in their sins and going to Hell. Without the gospel they have no hope. Unlike Christianized countries like the United States, these people have no access to the gospel. They can't make a choice to seek the true God through His Word.<br />
<br />
We go because we love God and we love them.</div>

<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-t7w8xIcZZk8/VhaAhGt8juI/AAAAAAAACAk/FSENOganspI/s1600/DSC01138.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-t7w8xIcZZk8/VhaAhGt8juI/AAAAAAAACAk/FSENOganspI/s320/DSC01138.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A few groups of Christians, who came out of bad churches, have been asking us to come help them for over a year. Finally we had time to take a bus to Tacna, which is on the border of Chile. We spent 16 hours traveling by bus to visit these brothers. We met with Gonzalo first. He shared his testimony of how he came to understand sound doctrine and how his life had been changed.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
After resting for a while, and eating some lunch, we met back at Gonzalo's house for a time of worship and questions. A lot of people showed up and we answered questions for over five hours. They had a lot of questions about the procedures in starting a church, membership, choosing pastors, etc. Several people broke down in tears as they told us of their struggles. We were able to give counsel, answer a lot of questions, and guide them in starting a church. It was an amazing night.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The next day we met with Abraham and his group of believers. Again, we answered questions for hours and had a great time of fellowship. We also gave Abraham and Gonzalo a stack of good books from the Gospel Coalition, which they greatly appreciated.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The greatest need that both these groups have is missionaries. They both begged for us to send them missionaries to help start the church. Tacna would be a great place to start a church. There is already a group of about 25 people that want to start a church, and they are in the process of doing so, but they need help. Once again we see a great need but have no way to meet it. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Our goal is to raise up Peruvian missionaries and pastors to send out from our church to areas like Tacna. We also want to bring in missionaries from the States, help them learn the language and culture, train them in the church for a few years, and then send them to places like Tacna. The harvest is great but the laborers are so few. We are praying for God to raise up qualified men to come to Peru to meet these needs.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

Is God calling you?</div>

We have learned over and over that God is faithful to His Church. I want to give an update on God's faithfulness to His church in Cusco.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We have been going through some changes and various trials in Cusco. The devil always tries to destroy the church of God and he uses all kinds of means to accomplish this end. God, however, is sovereign and faithful to His Bride. God uses trials and difficult times to strengthen the local church and He uses suffering to conform His people to the image of Jesus. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It is so encouraging to gather together with the church to worship God together as a family. God has really been strengthening the core of the church. The members are dedicated and they are beginning to set the culture for the new people to imitate as they come in. God has also answered our prayers for someone to help lead music. A guy named Herman, who is a member with his wife, is now playing the guitar during service. He does an outstanding job and it really has improved our worship dramatically. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I just finished teaching an evangelism class for the last 3 1/2 months. The church seems to have a new desire to share the good news of Jesus Christ. Wehrner is just finishing up a series on Philippians, and Joe is about to start a new Sunday School series on the family. We really want to establish strong, Christ-centered families to set the example for the new people. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We just about have all the documents of the church finished and registered with the government as well. Membership, the constitution, and the bylaws have strengthened the core and will help us avoid many problems in the future.<br />
<br />
After worshiping the Lord with a packed building of believers today, I was encouraged and convinced of God's faithfulness to His church. I believe we will only go up from here. We will continue to be faithful to God in teaching and preaching His Word, in prayer, in evangelism, in discipleship, and fellowship, depending on God alone to make His word effectual and to build His Church.</div>

<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We had an amazing trip and many new opportunities
granted to us.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The gospel was preached
to many people throughout the trip and the people were very encouraged.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We also were very encouraged to be with true
brothers and sisters in Christ who have an intense hunger for the word of God.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>After talking with many people, we found that

<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Another trip to the jungle was successful.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Mike Hyatt and Kyle Brown from Calvary
Baptist church in Helena, Montana joined me on this trip to the village of
Mayapo.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We flew to Lima and made our way
to the church in Barranco to meet friends and pass the time getting a few
supplies and eating our last good meal before we caught the night bus to Tarma.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">In Lima we picked up our friend Ronaldo, who
would translate for Mike.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Ronaldo is
from Lima and is a very good translator.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>We took a cab to the bus stop, which is in a very bad part of Lima, and
we waited for our bus to arrive.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A guy
selling dirty magazines, while proclaiming to be a Christian, took up a lot of
our time while waiting.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We talked to him
for a long time and we shared the gospel with him.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He loved to talk so I was suspicious of him
being a distraction for someone to rob us.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>We jumped on the bus at 9:30 and drove all night to Tarma.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The bus stopped once in the middle of the
night for a bathroom break and it almost left with Ronaldo still in the
bathroom.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A lady yelled at the bus
driver to stop, and Ronaldo made a mad dash to the bus as it was leaving.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The bus travels from Lima at sea level,
ascends to one of the highest drivable passes in the world at 14,500 feet above
sea level, and then back down to about 800 feet above sea level in Satipo. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><br />
We arrived in Tarma at about 5:00am and found two Moto taxis, which we
overloaded with gear to drive us to our hotel.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>We checked in and tried to sleep, but a hotel worker awakened us at
9:00am to tell us it was time for breakfast.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>We ate bread and eggs with bologna in it, and drank bad coffee and
pineapple juice.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We met with Pastor Carlos at the little church
at 3:00pm.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="font-size: large;">The little church in Tarma is
suffering.</span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>All the “churches” in town
got together to form an alliance against the little church, calling it a
cult.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The members are shunned and
harassed in the little town.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They said
they are very alone and long for fellowship.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>They were very grateful that we came and wanted us to teach for 4 hours
that day.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We gave Carlos some books from
the Gospel Coalition, for which he was so happy.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Mike preached first on the nine marks of a
healthy church, and then we had a question and answer time, which went very
well.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We took a coffee break at 5:00pm
and then continued again at 7:00pm.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I
taught on the mission of the church and what a healthy church member should
seek.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We again had a time of questions
and answers, which went on for over an hour.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>There were a lot of questions about church discipline, unqualified
pastors, persecution, and various others.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Before we left we prayed over a young couple with two little babies.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is so great to be with Christians that are
hungry for the Word of God.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We left Tarma early the next morning.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We contracted a car to drive us to the jungle
city of Pichanacki.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The trip went by
fast as we descended from the Sierras to the jungle.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We arrived in three hours and met up with
Pastor Roric and Freddy.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We had a good
lunch with them, gave them some books, and then headed to Satipo in another
car.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Roric is a very solid brother who
is well educated and has one of the most biblical churches in this area of Peru.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He decided to join us on our trip to the

We arrived to Satipo in an hour, checked into
our hotel, and rested for a bit.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Pastor
Miguel soon came to the hotel to tell us the change in plans.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A man always has his own ideas and plans, but
<span style="font-size: large;">God often changes them for His perfect plan.</span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><span style="font-size: large;"> </span>
</span>Wilder, the pastor of the church in Nazaret, said we couldn’t hike the
20 kilometers to his village because a storm destroyed the trail.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He did arrange for all the teachings to be
done in the village of Mayapo, on the Tambo River.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This was God’s providence because we have
wanted to teach in Mayapo for years, but they were against us doing so.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Now the door was wide open.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Wilder even invited other Ashaninkas from
other villages, so now there should be three villages represented.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This turn of events reminded of Paul’s call
to Macedonia.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Acts 16:6-10 tells us:<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><i>“And they went through the region of Phrygia
and Galatia, having been forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in
Asia. <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><sup>7 </sup></b>And when
they had come up to Mysia, they attempted to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit
of Jesus did not allow them. <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><sup>8 </sup></b>So,
passing by Mysia, they went down to Troas. <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><sup>9 </sup></b>And
a vision appeared to Paul in the night: a man of Macedonia was standing there,
urging him and saying, “Come over to Macedonia and help us.” <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><sup>10 </sup></b>And when Paul had
seen the vision, immediately we sought to go on into Macedonia, concluding that
God had called us to preach the gospel to them.”</i><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">God had a different plan for Paul, and for us
as well on our trip.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We were very
excited to see what was about to unfold for us.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Mike preached very well at Miguel’s church that
night.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We had good fellowship with the
brothers and then went to Miguel’s house for the first of many bowls of hot
soup we would eat over the next week.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We
talked until late and then went to bed.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The next morning we met Roric and Ivan (A young
man from Miguel’s church who decided to go with us).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The power went out in Satipo early in the
morning, which prevented our ride from showing up.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Miguel went and found a truck to take the
seven of us.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We piled in the truck and
drove to Puerto Ocopa in 1½ hours.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Puerto Ocopa is a dumpy river town that resembles a toilet more than a
town.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We ate at a shady “restaurant”
before getting on the boat.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Kyle and I
chose a dish called Lomo Saltado, while the rest of the crew was inclined to
eat jungle rat.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It seemed like a bizarre
world as we ate strange food in a strange town as we watched an episode of
Bonanza in Spanish that was playing on TV.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">With our bellies full, which is not a good
thing before a 5 hour boat ride with no bathroom, we boarded our vessel.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The boat was filled with over 50 people and
an innumerable amount of cargo.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The
seats went from gunnel to gunnel, so to get in your seat you had to walk a thin
rail on either side of the boat.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is
hard to do this balancing act while holding gear, so some people opt to have
their gear passed from person to person.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>We had a good laugh at Kyle when a baby was being passed from the bow to
the stern.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Ronaldo took the kid and
turned to hand it to Kyle, saying, “Take the baby.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You must take the baby.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Now Kyle had it in his mind that he would be
responsible for taking care of the baby for the next five hours, so he told
Ronaldo to take care of the baby himself.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>After further explanation, I told him to pass the baby back behind
him.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We all laughed.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We stopped at a military checkpoint, which is the
last form of law for the next 1000 miles of jungle.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The military man checked the names on the
list and found there were more people in the boat than names on the list.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This started a long inspection of each person.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Mike used his passport to buy his passage,
but then put it in his backpack, which was now at the bottom of the innumerable
cargo.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The man came to us and asked Mike
for his passport.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Mike gave him his
temporary Montana drivers license, which meant nothing to the Peruvian military
man.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With some careful talking, we
talked the guy into letting us go.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Close
call.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">After about an hour down the river, the young,
inexperienced pilot got the boat stuck on a shallow spot in the river.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>After being unable to get the boat unstuck,
he received many new nicknames from the passengers.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Several men jumped into the river and pushed
the boat out to save the day.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">At the next stop, to the dismay of all the
current passengers, many new passengers squeezed on the boat. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-size: large;">One lady, balancing on the narrow bar, was
carrying a small dog upside down, by its back legs.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As she passed over Kyle, we noticed she also
had a full grown, live chicken under her shirt.</span><span style="font-size: large;"> </span> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We had another good laugh as we continued down the river.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

On Wednesday night we had a great celebration as the church instituted membership. All the members gathered together as a big, united family with the same mind and spirit. We spoke about the purpose of membership and then we celebrated the Lord's Supper together. After we all stood and read the church covenant together, we signed it as the affirmation of our dedication to live as Christians together. After we closed with a prayer, we ate some good food and drank coffee together in sweet fellowship.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Each member received a Bible and a copy of the constitution. The members will review the constitution during the next month and then we will have another special meeting to adopt the constitution. We are so excited and it seem the members are so joyfully united, more than ever before. <br />
<br />

Because of this, we know that we must not put our guard down because the enemy is prowling around to devour the little flock. Please continue to pray for us.<br />

<span style="background-color: white;">This will be accomplished through long-term partnerships in areas. In general the training will include a three-year process of training. This will consist of 2-3 conferences a year. In some cases, mostly remote areas, we will begin with some basic conferences that will entail story telling the big picture of the Gospel/ Bible to give an adequate foundation. </span></div>

A lot of great things have been happening in our church in Cusco. Our friend Larry Chandler and his daughter Jaynie and her friend Ashley have greatly encouraged us. Larry was here for a week and preached four times in our church. Ashley and Jaynie will stay on with us for another month or so.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Thanks to Joe Martinez, Jaynie, and Ashley, the music in our church during worship has drastically changed for the better. Joe is playing some sort of conga, Ashley plays the guitar and Jaynie sings. Instead of asking God to forgive us, at times, for our worship, I now have great joy in singing the sweet songs of <a href="http://www.sovereigngracemusic.org/" target="_blank">Sovereign Grace</a> in Spanish.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Many new discipleship and evangelistic opportunities have came our way in the last month. I'm now meeting with a guy named Ccori to study the Bible each week. God seems to be working in him a lot, judging by the countless questions he has. Our conversations sometimes go on for four hours.</div>

I'm still meeting with Rony each week and another young couple Efraim and Julie, although the later are usually hit or miss. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
While Larry was staying at a hotel by the church he build a relationship and shared the gospel with a young man named Roger. Roger is going through tough times in his life. Larry gave him a <a href="http://www.wretchedradio.com/biggestproject/" target="_blank">Biggest Question DVD</a> and the man was greatly affected the next day. We talked to him one night after church and then gave him a Bible. I am supposed to start meeting with him each week as well.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Another sweet thing happening in the church is that Joe Martinez started a study for University students on Thursday nights. It seems to have gathered interest and is going very well. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Anthony Olson started a Bible Club for kids on Tuesday and Thursday and at first up to 30 kids were coming to it each day. There is now a smaller group of around 15-20 that come regularly. </div>

Larry brought down a bunch of books that we received from the Gospel Coalition, as well as some theology books from Larry's church, <a href="http://www.mvbchurch.org/" target="_blank">Mount Vernon Baptist Church</a>. We are building a good library but we need many more books to arrive. We will give out the first sets of books on our jungle trip this September.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The first day of the conference surprised us. There was a much bigger turn out than expected, in fact, we had to buy more chairs. Around 40 people from 10 different Ashaninca communities were represented, not to mention the pastors and leaders from the surrounding area. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Some of the tribal people traveled for two days through the jungle to arrive at the conference. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Scott Dollar taught an Old Testament Survey for most of each day. Joe and I taught on the disciplines of Scripture reading, Scripture memorization, and Scripture meditation each morning. The teachings went so good. Everyone was very attentive and asked very good questions. After I finished teaching on a method for memorizing whole books of the Bible, I challenged them to memorize a book between 90 and 160 verses. This should take a year or more. I told them that I would give them a big reward of their own library of theological books. At the end when I asked them to raise their hands if they wanted to accept the challenge, almost everyone raised their hand. I now better come up with some books because I think these people may just do it. How strange and awesome would it be to be lost in the jungle and stumble upon a village where they all had the book of Ephesians memorized.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
During each day the people who were not teaching did street evangelism in the plaza, which ended up bearing fruit by bringing in a key contact. Each night we had a preaching service as well. Brad, Bryan, Jack, and I preached. The people really endured long days of teaching. We started each day at 9am and finished at about 9pm each day, with only a few hours break for lunch and dinner.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
At the end of each day session we had a question and answer panel. They asked so many questions that we always went over the allotted time and finally had to close it down until the next day. We answered a wide variety of questions and got in to some heated debates at times. We answered a lot of questions about the qualification of pastors, women pastors, eschatology, prayer posture, the proper clothes to wear, women's make-up, Mormonism, Jehovah Witness, the Israelita cult of Peru, a heated debate about losing salvation, and countless others.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A key contact came to the conference through a providential meeting during evangelism. This man, Teddy, used to work for a mission agency to gather pastors from the jungle for conferences. He worked with a people group that we never heard of called the Yanesha people. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

According to Wycliffe the Yanesha people with a population at over 10,000 distributed among 48 communities near Satipo. The Yanesha people speak Yanesha', a language family that also includes Asháninka. A dictionary and grammar have been published in Yanesha', and also a New Testament, although they only have a literacy rate of 10%-30%.<br />
<br />
Teddy told us that the Yanesha people have been abandoned long ago in the area he worked with them, and now there are no churches. However, after attending the conference for three days, and loving it, he said he would bring up to 30 leaders from this tribal group to Satipo for our December conference. Teddy is well educated and knows his Bible well. This could be a key contact to expand. We will talk to Teddy in December to determine if we will start another training center in this area in 2016 or 2017. <br />
<br />
Some of the crew went to an orphanage in Satipo and Joe Martinez shared the gospel with them. Later we gave them a proclaimer audio Bible. We made many other good contacts during the week as well, one of which was a very solid young man named Jonathan. Jonathan went to a seminary in Lima and is fairly new to Satipo. He was very grateful when we told him about Miguel's church.<br />

We decided to call our training center<i> Reforming Peru</i>. Scott Dollar is developing a web site now and I will share it when it is finished. We have all the themes for the nine conferences and will develop the curriculum as we go. We should be able to replicate this training center in any part of Peru. As we expand we will seek key partners to help us put on these conferences. We are so excited about the huge success of the first conference, and we really believe that the conference attendance could double in December.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
We discovered an amazing ministry that will give solid Spanish books to missionaries for the work in the field. It is called Packing Hope. You can see the video above. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you would like to help us get theologically sound books in the hands of many Peruvian pastors and leaders, you can request a lot of free books, ship them to your house, and when then next group or person comes to Peru, they can bring them to us. For example, you can request a case (24 books) of <i>The Gospel-Centered Life</i> for free. You only have to pay shipping. To find out more go to their website <a href="http://www.thegospelcoalition.org/international/free-resources" target="_blank">HERE</a>, choose Spanish as the language and then simple choose the book and how many cases you want. Please contact me if you are interested in doing this or if you have questions.<br />

Our recent trip to the jungle went far better than we imagined that it could go. After the ordination in Cusco, Scott Dollar, Jack, Larry, Joe, Anthony, and I flew to Lima and then took a bus all night to a little town called Tarma. It is about the same elevation as Cusco, but it was cold. We arrived at 6:30am and had to find a hotel. We later connected with a contact we had for a little house church. We met with one of the men and then we went to their house to teach. Scott Dollar taught and we all encouraged the little band of believers. Their pastor, Carlos, was living in the jungle for a season so a guy named Daniel was teaching each week. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
We were very encouraged by them and I think they were also encouraged. After our meeting we went to eat the first of many plates of chaufa (Peruvian fried rice) that we would eat for the next week.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The next day Scott Dollar, Anthony, and I found a guy to take us to the jungle town of Pichanaki, which was about a 3 hour ride. Joe, Larry, and Jack stayed in Tarma to teach on Saturday and Sunday. The teaching went very well. In fact, Daniel came to Satipo and attended the conference all week. We only got delayed for a half and hour because of the often occurring mud slides the block the highways in this part of Peru for sometimes days.<br />

We met up with another church in Pichanaki. Roric is the pastor of this very solid church. We had lunch with them and talked for a while. These guys are amazingly solid and have a very healthy church. We are looking at partnering with Roric in our work in the jungle and providing them with books. </div>

<span style="color: #990000;">One of the biggest requests we get from pastors in Peru is resources. They long to read books to continue to grow in knowledge, but there are so few good books in Spanish, and the ones that exist are hard to come by. We are in the process of developing a pastoral library of good books we can give to many pastors that we know who need them. If you want to help us in this area you can get free books from the Gospel Coalition <a href="http://www.thegospelcoalition.org/international/free-resources" target="_blank">HERE</a> and someone from the States can bring them to us. Contact me for more information.</span><br />
<br />
Roric is an amazing guy. He and a friend once hiked 30 days through the mountains preaching the gospel to unreached Quechua villages. They lived only by faith and prayer, eating only what people provided them along the way.<br />
<br />
After lunch and sweet fellowship with these believers, we moved on to Satipo. We met up with Alex (a dear brother in Christ from Lima that translates for Scott Dollar), and Bryan and Brad who are from a church in Atlanta, Georgia. <br />
<br />
On Sunday morning, Alex delivered a good message to the church. We spent the rest of the day preparing for the conference which would start the next day. We returned for an evening service and Brad preached a good message to a room filled with the recently arrived Ashaninka people from Chembo.<br />
<br />
Some pretty amazing things took place during the week long conference. I will post the next blog about the conference soon.</div>

We celebrated the ordination of Joe Martinez and Wehrner Pancorbo in our church in Cusco today. Scott Dollar and Jack Chapman, as well as me did the examinations and found both to be qualified to be ordained. It is a great privilege to work with these two men of God and to continually see them growing in Christ and in their role of pastors of the sheep. Here are a few pictures of the sweet service we had with the church. </div>

We had a sweet day in the country at our land with the church. We ate, played volleyball, and fellowshiped all day. The bus we rented broke down several times and got pulled over by the police several time until it finally kicked the bucket. They called for another bus to transport the crew the rest of the way. Once everyone was at the land, we had a beautiful sunny day. Please continue to pray that God adds His people to His church. God is good. Click on the picture to see a slideshow of our day.</div>
