The team has safely returned from Peru, rejoicing in all the amazing things that the Lord has done. Thank you so much for your prayers! If you would like a detailed report with specific answers to prayer and testimonies of God’s power, please drop us an email.
Today the team took a three-hour drive south to Pisco. Thankfully, we had a nice big comfortable two-story tour bus for the trip! The excursion afforded us an excellent opportunity to view the rugged scenery along the Peruvian coast. The barren hills and desert landscapes bore testimony to the small amount of rainfall this area […]
Our incredibly busy schedule and the lack of consistent Internet connectivity has simply not allowed enough time for me to sort through and post pictures of each day. But it´s just miraculous what God has accomplished in the last two days. It seems like whatever we have asked God for in prayer, He gives! Thursday […]
David is 18. He had concluded that Christianity just didn´t make sense. He had given up on God and left church. However, his mom persuaded him to attend our service on Sunday night. When he heard testimony after testimony of God´s power at work in the lives of the young people on our team, his whole perspective […]
Looking back over the events of the day, there was a definite theme of “health.” In the morning, we attended the final ceremony of a health conference where, along with other speakers, a doctor who used to work for NASA, spoke on the importance of preventive medicine versus simply treating disease. It was neat to […]

Goldenrod was blooming and Dad and I once again attended the annual fall meeting of the West Virginia Beekeepers Association (WVBA) held at the beautiful Jackson’s Mill facility. Each year beekeepers from across the state gather to glean a wide range of helpful information from the speakers, not to mention the exchange of ideas with […]
From Chicago to Guatemala City; from Guatemala City to San Salvador; from San Salvador to Lima! For the team of 50 or so young people, the day started at 1:00AM and wasn’t over until after 11:00PM. When we touched down in Peru, there wasn’t much time for respite. After stopping at our hotel to drop […]
Well, our plane takes off for Lima, Peru, at 3:00AM tomorrow morning! That doesn’t leave much more time for preparation, but God has supernaturally allowed literally impossible things to get done over the past few days. Take for example, the business cards for all 50 team members. After days of work, the portraits and family […]
How many relevant Bible verses come to mind when you hear a saying such as the following two statements I came up with today? (It’s interesting what goes through a head while trecking through the woods with a weed-whacker.) How much fun you expect to have justifies nothing. How much fun you had was entirely […]
