In 1994 Colombian NTM missionary families’ lives and ministries were interrupted by \u00a0violence. Since that fateful day, many have lived with a deep sense of loss. Two of our own, suffered the loss of a husband and father. And all remember their former MK school and home located in a beautiful tropical valley in the foothills of the Andes Mountains, where they lived and ministered for so many years. How sad it made us, knowing the lives of our co-worker’s families were changed forever and our former ministry center was left empty and deteriorating.<\/p>\n

Macon and I, along with Jeremy and family returned recently to that former school property. Jeremy is a friend with the present owners, Alberto and Maria Sanchez. I cannot express to you the impact this visit has had on me, personally, and perhaps will have on those still hurting from lives interrupted.<\/p>\n

Alberto and Maria are believers and they are passionate that this incredible property once again honors\u00a0God and those who minister in Colombia. It is now a retreat center for Colombian youth, churches, pastors and missionaries. Each building is lovingly restored to better than original state. They are converting the former two-airplane hanger into a chapel building that will seat hundreds. And they have added a state of the art dining facility to the former dormitory school kitchen.<\/p>\n

Alberto and Maria have dedicated one restored building on this special property to our fallen missionary co-workers, Steve \u00a0Welch and Tim Van Dyke and their families.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
