The Compassion staff is incredible...a heart for children and the Lord

Hola!

This has been an amazing trip seeing God’s grace at work in Cochabamba and Mineros.  It is hard to believe that we leave today and tomorrow at this time, we will be stateside.  The Compassion staff is incredible—some of the most dedicated church workers and volunteers I have ever met.  They have a heart for children and for the Lord.  Yesterday, in addition to the two sessions with the Compassion children, Kerry, Kathy and I had the blessing of teaching during the Women’s Bible Study.  We each taught about one of the names of Jesus.  In teaching about Jesus as the Bright Morning Star, I was reminded that, even though I live on the other side of the world from these women, we still see the same sun and have the same Lord.  Marcos and I were blessed to be able to sing and play with some of the worship team members and to learn some of the songs we sing at Our Savior in Spanish.  Last night, we went to a park for an outreach event to the community.  Lots of festive Christian music, games, and a very well-done musical production by the Compassion staff.  The Lord is moving in this place. 

Thank you for all of the prayers you have put up on our behalf.  It has been an amazingly busy time and the only way we have sustained this pace is by God’s grace.  We feel your prayers!  We are excited to share what God is doing in Bolivia. 

Blessings,
