Home Again from Bolivia

Just …

Dear Friends,

Just a note to say that we arrived home safely from Bolivia even though our flights were delayed and our suitcases just arrived a day after we did.

In spite of the unsettling times in Bolivia, all the field leaders, missionaries and pastors arrived for the conference as planned, and we are grateful that God so clearly undertook. As we all shared formally and informally we were encouraged in seeing God using His church to continue expanding the reach of the gospel, regardless of what nationality that happens to be…the church in each place. What a privilege all believers have, to be co-workers together with God.

The conference sessions were mostly in Spanish (some Portuguese) with simultaneous translation to English for a few people. In a couple of cases the process was reversed, and those using the headphones were the people hearing the English presentation translated to Spanish.

The next step is for those who attended the conference is to share the messages with those in their home areas who were unable to attend. We all need to be reviewing what God has to say about His church, our identity in Christ, and what he has entrusted to each of us. We all know the whole process won’t be finished until Christ returns, but meanwhile there is a lot to be done, becoming more and more what Christ would have us to be and do.

Our next step will be to do some traveling in the U.S., meeting with many of our vital partners stateside for the next couple of months, before and after the meetings in which we will participate here in Sanford during the month of August. We are looking forward to seeing many who have been a part of the work we are doing.
