The team just arrived safely in Iquitos! We were sad to say goodbye to our wonderful team of Peruvians, but are so blessed to have served with them this week. It was a very encouraging week with many open hearts and seeds sown. It is such a well-established ministry and hundreds of lives are being touched regularly through the discipling ministry of Jake and the Peruvian team. We were so blessed to see the fruit of the last many years of ministry and are so excited to see possibile doors opening for the future!
We had moderately warm weather, not too many bugs, some wonderfully refreshing rain storms and only a few giant spiders and rats! We stayed in San Francisco the first 3 nights and in Hunta for the last 2. The eye glass ministry was very well received and almost 300 people are able to see clearly now! We pray that their spiritual eyes were opened as well!
The team is all in great health and rejuvinated after a shower instead of an Amazon bath, and we are about to do a little souvenier shopping and dinner at our favorite pizza place! We will fly out around noon tomorrow and should arrive in Fort Worth around 12:40 Sunday afternoon!
Thank you for your prayers this week… we saw the Lord do many amazing things and are grateful for the support we have from our church and families and friends~
