Living Victory

Hey guys! Here in Huancayo, today was the last scheduled day of follow up, new believer ministry. Our day and week culminated tonight in a beautiful victory celebration; we sang, shared testimonies, and prayed with the national pastors and fellow Believers. The best part was the understanding that this was not the end of our ministry. Not only will our ministry continue in Huancayo next year and through the Peruvian locals we worked with, but our ministry will continue in our daily lives at home, work, and everywhere we go. The passion which has been ignited here in Huancayo will be brought with us wherever we find ourselves. I want to encourage you to talk to one of us when we get home so that we can share the same passion with you. Over the course of the last 5 days we shared the gospel with 599 Peruvians and 395 responded with a desire to accept Christ as their Savior. But that is just part of the story...We had 147 attend the beginnings of 8 new cell groups that, Lord willing, will become local churches in their respective areas. We are celebrating tonight, the Great Commission, to Go and Make Disciples not simply Converts! 

Tomorrow we do some sight seeing and then begin the long journey home by bus and plane. Thanks for continuing to pray for our health and safe travels home.

for the team, Nathan
