There and Back Again...

John and I recently returned from another trip to Tucuman in Argentina and what a blessing it was! It really has become like visiting family each time I have a chance to visit. Their love and kindness are remarkable and it is so clear that it is the bond of Christ that unites us. I was so thankful for the time we spent planning for this summer's trip. I am really looking forward to returning with the team to minister there to the church and reach the surrounding neighborhoods. It was also a great time to encourage the church through teaching times and spiritual fellowship. I enjoyed some really great conversations with different individuals about how they came to faith and how their lives have changed since. One man in particular just recently came to know the Lord and came to Bible study with his two sons. It was so encouraging to see Deuteronomy 6:7 illustrated in his life as he sought to have his sons learn God's truth. Pastor Jorge and the leaders of the church were quick to point out various families who had come to the church since the last campaign with our team because they understood the encouragement it would bring us to see the fruit of our labors. Praise God for the work that is being accomplished in Tucuman! I hope for many more years of ministry together as we proclaim Christ in Argentina.
