JULY 2025 PRAYER LETTER

In ministry, it often feels like a cycle of feast or famine. At times, it appears that little is being accomplished, while at other moments, everything seems to happen all at once. This past month has certainly been the latter.

We recently completed our long-awaited medical clinic, partnering with Medical Missions Outreach, which brought 44 individuals to assist us and our 2nd church with this incredible outreach opportunity. The response from the local community was overwhelming, with lines forming each day as people hoped to receive care. Many would even sleep in line at the gate knowing that without doing so, they would not make it inside the next day. In total, the team was able to provide over 2,000 individuals with not only medical and optical care but also with the gospel. As we have always done, each person received a personal presentation of the gospel before leaving the clinic. The following Sunday, we were blessed to see about 100 of those individuals attend the church service. Please pray for Pastor Rogelio and the church members as they work to reach out to these visitors and begin to disciple those who have made professions of faith.

A couple of weeks before the clinic, we traveled three hours to Samaipata for a short respite, and to deliver Sunday school curriculum to a local church. The Pastor and his wife were very grateful for the materials. They said that they had been praying that God would supply something like this. We had the opportunity to fellowship with them during our stay, and by the time we left, we felt that our purpose there was not just for rest, but also to encourage this couple.

Thankfully, our church construction and improvements are progressing well. The floor has been leveled in preparation for ceramic tile, which has been purchased and is on site. Walls have been painted, and window installation is complete. The man who was to assist with the flooring has been sick so that segment of the work is on hold temporarily. What excites us most about all of this is the level of active involvement of the church members throughout the entire process. We can see their desire and growth within the ministry as they do all they can to be a part of the progress.

Lastly, we ask for your prayers regarding a new outreach initiative we plan to launch in August with a family from another local church. While it will start as a children's club, we envision it as the foundation for a future church plant.

Thank you for making all of this possible by allowing us to be here in your stead. Your prayers and support are what make this ministry possible.
