Santa Cruz is now on their 19th day of a Civil Strike. Consequently, there are many roadblocks and we cannot go out. In addition, certain foods are difficult to find, gasoline is hard to buy, and if you find them, they’re expensive. Some stores and businesses are open twice a week for half a day, […]

Bolivia is going through more political upheaval. The highways that connect the city to the rest of the country are blockaded.

I have started having weekly opportunities to connect personally with  that I’ve taught for 3-4 years. I meet online every week with a girl just to practice talking in English. One boy has to wait for his parents, so we chat as I wait with him. I pray this door will stay open and I […]

Some local brothers are mobilizing to do more village outreach. We pray some younger folks would catch this vision. It’s hard to do much without a private vehicle because lots of the little places don’t run any shuttle service to the city on weekends. […]

The Lord has provided the needed funds to complete the first phase of construction on the new church in Nueva Brema. We are so thankful for this!
