Trip to Argentina: Who are you, I asked the man as I arrived at Faith Baptist in Pergamino. His name was Andres, and he was new to Faith Baptist Church in Pergamino. I had never met him, because he had been invited to church, received Christ as his savior, and had started discipleship since we had left for the States. What a joy it was to meet people saved in our ministry this year while we have been gone! During my visit, I had the opportunity to preach in both our churches twice and to help with the youth meeting at Faith on Saturday night. The churches are doing well and going forward. Praise God!
While I was in Argentina I was able to go by and see the construction of the church. It is advancing quickly. During my trip, I was able to pay for the concrete for the flooring and purchase the windows and the doors.
Furlough: Along with spending the first week of August in Argentina I visited churches in Alabama, Arkansas, and North Carolina. This month of September is booked with a lot of mission conferences. Pray as we raise additional support during this time.
While we are on furlough I have the opportunity to teach at the Training Center. I am teaching the poetic books to these young men and women who are training for missions. Classes resumed on the 20th of August.
Prayer Points:
• We are praying for more laborers in Argentina.
• Pray for the men leading the ministries in Faith and Victory Baptist Church.
• Pray for us as we travel here in the states.
Thank you for your support!
