End of the year in Baños

Enrique, Mike, Sue, and Olimpia enjoy a pre-service meal.
A few of the men at the men's meeting--at a pizzaria.

P. Mike, Enrique, Olimpia, and Sue were able to go to Baños this trip. Since Sue was along due to school vacations, we had two nights of women's and men's meetings. We also got to visit people who have been attending the Bible studies. It was a delightful two days.




Christmas in Guayaquil

Thanks to Becky from Carlisle, EVERYONE in the church got jerseys for Christmas.
I suspect that Raphael likes the food.
This time we're eating by candlelight because we choose to, not because of the rolling blackouts.
Silvia, Sue, Rosa, Maria, and Yadira.
Maria organized the dinner with grace.
And so we had a festive birthday party for Jesus in Iglesia la Gracia!

Youth Group in Peru


In November, our youth group met the youth group from Lima, Peru for a weekend retreat at the beach. Our youth were greatly touched by the messages and had a great time.
