Happy 2012 to all!
Well, it is coming on fast! The mountains around Arequipa had a white Christmas! We here in the city had rain and fog and drizzle and cold. "Summer" has left us already!
We had a good school closing program, and we just really pray that each student will remember and keep what they have heard of God's Word this year. It has been a privilege and responsability to give His Word to so many, in school, at church, and visiting. Thanks so much for your part in praying for us and sharing with us.
Also we had a good New Year's Eve service, till around 1:00 a.m. A new believer who works in the north of Perú was baptized at around 11 p.m. So that was a good way to end 2011 and start 2012!
Bob went to the Majes plains and valley last week but will not be going till after we return from the U.S. in March, Lord willing. The little group in Aplao in the Majes Valley needs prayer. They are small and often scattered. There are some who truly want to continue meeting and studying God's Word, so please help us pray for them.
There are many things we need to do before going to the U.S. January 9. Time just seems to go so fast. Please help us pray for Bob's van (ex ambulance) to get sold. Several want to buy it but as it is not permitted to take passengers so that makes it really difficult, as that is what most folks want, and that is why Bob wants to sell it! For sure it will not sell for anywhere near what we need to get a better vehicle for Bob, so please just help pray!
Many blessings and thanks!
