Well, I got back home from my trip last Saturday (Aug. 2), its taken adjusting, missing friends and the places I've visited, but I am doing well!! I wanted to share some stats and stories from Peru and Argentina...
Peru:
Number of places we as a project went to to minister: 79
Number of people who saw us: 4384
Number of Adult Salvations: 331
Number of Child Salvations: 123
Total number of Salvations in Peru: 454
Here's one of my most memorable stories from Peru:
There was a time after I gave the net (altar call) that there was a group that needed prayer. I decided to pray for everyone at the same time. At one point I asked them all to repeat after me a couple of times, "I am healed in the name of Jesus Christ!" Afterwards, I heard that one man who had anxiety that day had been healed, and another woman who had asthma (I believe that was the sickness) was healed. Yes, God heals today, I saw it with my eyes!!!
Argentina:
Total number of Salvations: 424
Memorable story from Argentina:
My team was hanging out at a park playing with kids. My PD (a leader right above me) told me to go talk to a group of young men. So I got my missionary guys and we went over and talked some to them, we then played a game of soccer. Before we left, my guys started to share their faith...there was one guy there that seemed to get it, them he had to leave because he had a sick son. Me and my missionary guys then prayed for these young men we had been sharing with, that they would find Christ...That night we had an amazing dinner at the church we were working with and then went house to house inviting people to come to a church service that evening. When I got back to the church I saw that close to a whole row was being taken up by some of the guys we had played soccer with and some friends of the soccer players that we had shared with. We did the "Ragman" (a drama that depicts Jesus taking various sicknesses upon Himself and dying and being raised from the dead) that night and in spanish I told each of these guys that this message is for them...I watched each of these guys come to Christ this night!!! Praise God, He who began a good work in these young men will be faithful to complete it!!!
Thank you all for your prayer and support this summer! Please continue to pray for me as I come home to a "New" Mission field...Next Wed. (13th)I am actually heading off to Libertry University where I will be studying Drama Ministry (if you know me at all, you know I LOVE TO ACT!!!)... All for the extension of Christs Kingdom!!!
To the ends of the earth,
This world for King Jesus,
