Hello everyone! Here is an even later post than usual because a lot has been happening! My visa process was a lot more complicated than we were told and we have been back and forth to Ambato and we are still in process so please be in prayer that all will go well and there will be no more surprises! While we have been working on the visa we have also been searching for an apartment near the church in Huachi Chico. It turns out a member of Huachi Chico Baptist was renting an apartment nearby and the tenants are leaving at the end of this month. So I went with Byron Almendariz along with Pastor Carlos Paredes of Huachi Chico Baptist to tour the apartment. Not only is the apartment close to the church but it is also a nice apartment at a good price too! Although the tenants are leaving at the end of September, the apartment won't be ready until the middle of October. In the meantime, I will continue to work with Camp Chacauco as I plan out my class schedule with Pastor Carlos and other churches. Here at camp, we have been preparing for a very special event at the Technical University of Ambato. We have a Christian music concert and time of evangelism with all of the students of the university! Over 1,000 students are expected! We are very excited but also realize the size of this event is tremendous. So if you would pray that all of the logistical details would be taken care of so that there would be no distractions from what God has prepared for these students. We are also holding a camp here at Camp Chacauco to train worship leaders in several key areas including the theology of worship. Please be in prayer that these worship leaders would be encouraged and equipped to lead God's people in worship of their Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Thank you so much for visiting my blog today! Your prayers and support mean so much to me! I have faced many struggles and trials and knowing that I have all of you supporting me in prayer encourages me to keep going! While it has not been easy, God has been with me every step of the way, leading me to an even deeper relationship with my Savior! May God bless you and lead you into that deeper relationship wherever He has called you to live and serve! We are blessed so that we might bless others! May God bless you this day and every day after!
