IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE THREE MONTHS HAVE GONE BY SINCE I LAST UPDATED THE BLOG SITE..A LOT HAS HAPPENED INCLUDING AN 8.6 EARTHQUAKE HERE IN CHILE. IT HAS LEFT THE COUNTRY DEVASTATED. WE HAVE BEEN VERY FORTUNATE HERE IN THE NORTH BECAUSE THERE HAS BEEN NO DAMAGE BUT THE IMAGES YOU SEE ON TELEVISION AND ON THE COMPUTER ARE HEART BREAKING.

We have been very busy with adapting to our schedules, learning the language, working with the nationals and doing our survey work. We are now going into an area once a month, doing some prayerwalking, talking to people and trying to find out the names of contact people and if there are any schools, evangelical churches, municipals, etc. The information is looked over and then it is decided if it is an area that we should enter. We send the information to churches and ask them to adopt an area and pray for it for a year. We will send updates and pictures of the communities.
