I just got the report on the attendance tonight from the Youth Congress. As I was sitting in the Lima airport and 4 churches had already gone home from the congress they had the highest attendance that we have ever had in the auditorium. They had a total of 1598 people present. Pastor Miguel Murillo …
As I flew and also stole a few minutes this week I read some really good quotes that I would like to share with you. Live your life in such a way that you make liars out of your accusers! A successful man is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks others …
I am now sitting in the airport in Lima, Peru waiting on my flight to leave for Atlanta. I have to wait about 6 hours. As I flew out of Arequipa all that I could think was how good God has been and all that He is doing in Arequipa. Things are better than they …
Church of Christ, what wilt thou say When in the awful judgment day, They charge thee with their doom? A hundred thousand souls a day Are passing one by one away In Christless guilt and gloom Without one ray of hope and light With future dark as endless night They’re passing to their doom  …
As I have walked around the campus of the Peru Bible College and seen all that is happening all that I can do is thank the great God of Heaven for all that He is doing. The construction is first class. It is obviously blessed of the Lord. I want to say thank you to …

The first night the team had to purchase 100 foam rubber mattresses to sleep all the people who came in from …
Tonight was wonderful. I think that it was the best first night that we have ever had at one of our conferences. There were about 1200 in attendance and 16 people made professions of faith. The choir was the best that I have ever heard them. I was completely and totally awed by what God …

Since you are a Businessman Committed to World Evangelism I wanted to take this opportunity to share something with you from the perspective of a pastor. You are a very special man and you have a very special ministry to fulfill. If you would lend me the time I would like to share a brief …
How much research have they done on their country. Before a missionary comes to the church check out the general statistics of the country and ask him about them while he is there. He ought not know everything but the general questions. If he hasn’t studied his country enough then he probably isn’t the …
“I have but one candle of life to burn, and I would rather burn it out in a land filled with darkness than in a land flooded with light” — John Keith Falconer “Never pity missionaries; envy them. They are where the real action is — where life and death, sin and grace, Heaven and …
As you know the guys from the Our Generation Training Center and Macedonia Missionaires took a trip to China and just arrived back in the states. They now have a lot of really nice pictures and the story of their trip on the following web page. I want to challenge you to go and take …
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 …
 If you ever testify in court, you might wish you could have been as sharp as this policeman.He was being cross-examined by a defense attorney during a felony trial. The lawyer was trying to undermine the policeman’s credibility…. Q: “Officer — did you see my client fleeing the scene?” A: “No sir. But I subsequently …
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 …
I arrived in Arequipa Saturday evening at 8:30. I left the Holt’s home in Santiago, Chile at 7:30 AM or 6:30 AM Peru time and flew north to Arica, Chile and then crossed the border to Tacna, Peru to catch a flight to Arequipa but arrived late and so had to take a 6 hour …
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 …
1) “But I’m not called.” You don’t know how many people I’ve met who have said to me “I agree that more people need to go to the mission field, but I’ve never heard God tell me to go.”Well, the truth is that God has already told you to go in His Word. In fact, …
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. A very self-important college freshman attending a recent football game …
Well we arrived here in Chile to visit Jason and Lori Holt yesterday, Tuesday at about 9 am. We are also visiting Aldo and Maruja Asto. Chris McBryar, Jason and Jenny Kenny, (both missionaries to Chile with Macedonia) are also on this trip as Ellah Placano a student from Golden State. We are having a …
David Gates is a very fine young man that studied with us in Arequipa, Peru and is not in the BCWE program at Lighthouse Baptist Church in Dawsonville, Georgia. His dad is in really bad health and needs you to pray for him. I will put a couple of the emails that I have gotten …
I will be leaving for Santiago, Chile this evening to be with Macedonia World Baptist Missions Missionary Jason Holt. I am excited to see what God is doing there. He is greatly using Jason and also a Peruvian missionary Aldo Asto who serves with Macedonia. If you would like to learn more about the ministry there …
