ISAIAH 55:11

SO IS MY WORD THAT GOES OUT FROM MY MOUTH:
IT WILL NOT RETURN TO ME EMPTY,
BUT WILL ACOMPLISH WHAT I DESIRE
AND WILL ACHIEVE THE PURPOSE FOR WHICH I SENT IT.

HUGO IS OUR TEACHER ON TUESDAY EVENINGS


PASTOR (IN WHITE SHIRT), HIS SON DAVID, AND CHURCH MEMBER


The last two months have been a whirl-wind as we immersed into the Spanish culture. Please continue to pray for us as we continue to learn Chilean Spanish. God has abundantly supplied our needs as we sought out language learners. Connie is working with Teresita Marchant Ahumada who owns a fabric shop in downtown Vallenar and is always a joy to meet with. Andy meets with the local Baptist Pastor, Marcello and with Hector who delivers our water. We both have developed a close relationship plus have learned much from these nationals.

What a joy it was to have our home church be our first mission team to work with since arriving. We have now been on both sides----short term missionaries and now career missionaries.

God through your faithful giving has provided us with everything we need to minister in the Huasco River Valley. He has provided a comfortable home with ALL new furnishings and appliances that overlooks the city of Vallenar. In addition we have a Suzuki four wheel drive that has been indespensable in our movement throughout the river valley.

Every penny given to the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering is used to support Southern Baptist Missionaries as they share the Gospel.

We are currently working with the Wolf Pack in Buena Esperanza and have started an Adult Bible Study. We have also started a Kids Bible Club in Las Terrazas in our neighborhood on Friday afternoons. This is a direct result of JBC partnering in Praying, Giving, and Going that ALL may hear.
