Ventanilla Outreach 08

One of the Biggest and main summer event was " Ventanilla Outreach."  This event was in invasion of the neighboring towns Vantanilla (foreground) and Pachacutec ( on hills).  Pachacutec is one of poorest and dangerous communities in Peru.  It was an outreached that towards the youth, and young children.  just some of 175 participants in this outreach.  It was a three day event full of masses of children.  Clowns were there able to send out inspirational messages to these children and they had Loved it.  There were also heartfelt skits perform by of some of the participants that expressed the freedom we enjoy in Jesus.  I think we all know a child's heart and how so much trust and openness to Love they were the most opened to the message.  Tracks were handed out that read " Good news invasion Ventanilla." these we handed throughout the whole community of Pachacute. Many evangelism teams went door to door giving free car washes to spread the good news. Speaking of free! there was even free dential and free medical care to patients that received prayer.  That evening the concert took place put on by calvary chapel of Melbourne Florida. Through this overwhelming success the Lord allowed us to minister to thousands of people the good news of the gospel. Through all this many had made heartfelt dedications to the Lord with hearts of repentance and tears of brokenness and Joy. There have been many different church plants in Ventanilla and Pachacute please remember to pray for these churches as well.  We want to thank you for all your prayers and sponsorship and prayers.

May the Lord bless you and keep you

Inductive Bible study conference

Dear readers,
In the last post i have mentioned that there have been many things that have taken place. There are many ways the Lord has been able to minster to the people as well as South American Pastors.  This pass week CCBC-Peru hosted a important seminar with Bill Holdridge of Intensive Care Ministries to prepare 27 pastors from Various South American countries to teach the Inductive Bible study method.  The Conference was a week long conference that took place here at the bible college campus itself.  These Methods will help these Pastors to teach other students how to study the bible in a more effective way, and to also teach how to get into the scriptures to pull out the truth and essence of the scriptures. 

May the Lord bless you and keep you
