Okay so my title may actually have nothing to do with the topic I want to share with you.. Okay maybe a little. I really need some hot sauce, Tabasco or not. You see they have this spicy pepper here thats called aji, it’s spicy but not like our spicy it’s a little less tasteful and alot more fire. It’s yellow and tiny, actually pea sized, but it leaves a kick so full you might not feel your lips for a minute. Anyways, I want to talk about stepping out in faith.

I’ve been trying to figure out what to write for the past few days but I noticed in two weeks of doing the same thing in the morning, waiting for the bus, I’ve seen a lot more then you would have ever thought to see at a bus stop.

Please continue to keep us in your prayers as we bring Jesus to the people in the village of Nauta. 

Our Fall 2014 Peru team has officially arrived at the airport in Lima Peru, meet up with their contact and is currently traveling to their ministry city!  Their leaders called about 30 minutes ago and their travel from Atlanta was uneventful and smooth.  Having flown through the night, they are a mixture of exhausted and excited. The team will spend the coming days getting introduced to their ministry, coming to know the culture, and finding a routine for the months ahead.  They will be getting internet within the week so that they can communicate home and share more about...
