Latest update

Below you will find out latest update.  We had encouraging services this morning with 6 in attendance, praise the Lord!   Please keep us in your prayers.  It can be discouraging on Sundays not knowing if anyone is going to show up after meeting and inviting, but then it is doubly encouraging when people show up.  Pray that God will give us a faithful core group!

Natali has an announcement

Tonight at about 7:15 our daughter Natali asked Jesus to come into her heart!  We are praising the Lord for this!  It really came out of nowhere for us.  A couple of months ago Neomi was saved!  We didn’t want to press Natali so we left it to her and the Holy Spirit.  She has asked us a few times since then about Heaven, about Hell, and about being saved.  We would try to answer her questions and then leave it at that.  Tonight she was just coloring when she got serious and said that she wanted to be saved.  I was kind of taken aback, and I asked her, “why do you want to be saved now?”  She told me, “God told me he loved me.”  She prayed and in her words asked “God to fix her heart, and Jesus to come into her heart.”  That’s at least the part I could understand.  She was crying so hard it was hard to tell exactly everything she prayed.  Praise the Lord!

Happy Birthday Rebecca!

Today we celebrated Becca’s ________ birthday!  We had a good time of celebrating as a family.  Natali, Neomi and myself could not ask for a better mom and wife.  Happy Birthday Becca!

Missing tooth

It’s been awhile since one of the girls lost a tooth so we thought we would post the loss of Natali’s 3rd tooth!  She pulled it herself even though she was told to leave it alone!

This week (actually the entire month) has been a crazy one in Cusco.  Today is Cusco’s anniversary and they celebrate it by celebrating nearly the entire month of June.  But today, the 24th, they celebrate by reenacting an Inca ritual called “Inti Raymi”.  It is a festival to commemorate the sun god – Inti.  Today they will celebrate nearly the entire day in downtown Cusco.
