I just got through with a tour of the Peru Bible College and was extremely impressed.  God has blessed and things are in tremendous shape.  The construction has advanced by leaps and bounds.  It has to be some of the most impressive buildings in Arequipa.  The way the business side of things is run is [...]

Well today was our first day back in Peru since we resigned and returned to the states at the end of last year.  It was the longest that I have been out of the country since January of 1988. This morning I preached at 8 am at Faith then on to Smyrna at 9:30 and then [...]

I just got off the phone with David and he and his family are fine.  Obviously they are sad and will miss Mr Gates but knowing that he is in heaven is a great comfort.  David was praying over his dad as he went home.  To give you a few details here is a letter [...]

God has surely blessed and we had a wonderful evening.  I preached a message entitled “Now or Never” and Chris McBryar also preached a good message before I preached.  God seemed to move in a very special way.  There were 140 in attendance and they ran out of chairs and had to bring in children’s [...]

God blessed tremendously tonight.  Jason asked all of us to pray for over 100 and God sent 115 people.  Then a 23 year old young man accepted Jesus as his personal Savior.  It was his third time to be in the church and so exciting to see God work.  Then a young man was also [...]

Dick Frost was my first  field director while serving as a Missionary to Peru with Macedonia World Baptist Missions.  He just sent me the following joke and though I hardly ever forward things I thought this one was good enough to get a place here.
