I finished another semester at Maranatha. That leaves me with only one more semester to finish my undergraduate. Praise the LORD I will be finished by this Christmas. This summer, I am working full time and staying here in Watertown, WI until I fly out of Chicago to go back to Peru.
Plans are coming along for the trip. The Lord recruited two guys (George Tagli and Ryan Balding) from Maranatha to come with me on this rigorous adventure. We bought record-cheap tickets for June 20 to August 4. We will fly into Lima, the capitol, pick up my national friend Jairo, then hop on a bus to go down to the province of Ica to the city called Pisco.
Continue to be in prayer as we make plans for the language school, ministry schedule, room and board, travel insurance, shots, and many other miscellaneous details.
Please be in prayer for Ryan, George and I that we would be students of the language and culture, but also of how we can effectively reach these people for Christ. Pray that we are an encouragement to the pastor and brothers in the church, and also that we will be a light to all we come in contact with. A city with so many people and so little gospel light, we will never run out of people to shine Christ upon.

“May we who know Christ hear the cry of the damned as they hurdle head-long into a Christless night. May we shed tears of repentance for those we have failed to bring out of darkness.”
