Hello dear friends,

Be sure to check out my yahoo photo album (see link below).  I am posting some new photos.  It takes a lot of time, so I may just be able to put a few up.

But having a great time in Lima.  Hanging out today with Benhur and the pastors daughter - Colina (a very dear sister).  Our team is working with a great church here in Lima.  The pastor is a fantastic preacher, and the church is really growing.  They have all participated very well with the work of evangalism.  This morning we went to an elementary school.  This time we are all together as a single group - all 25 of us.  And the kids just love all the dramas and skits.  Afterwards we are swarmed with young kids wanting us to sign their notebooks and get our e-mail address. 

The people in Lima are not quite as receptive as the people in Piura (primarily because it is a much bigger city, and the people more educated/occupied, etc), but they are still very open and willing to discuss the Bible and Philosophy.  At times missionary life has been a little bit difficult for some on the team, but we continue to press on.  The dear saints here in the church are precious, and it is always so rewarding when someone makes a decision to follow Christ.  The more we pray, the more we keep the vision alive and are inspired for the work!

Gotta run! 

I´ll try to write more when I have more time.

Take care,

-Alex
