Country: Peru

Project #: C0510

Biography:We work with Spanish speaking, middle to lower class people that have good education. Most of the people are Catholic background mixed with taboos and native beliefs. People are tired of religion and Church, but are open to Jesus and personal testimony.

Otto: I love to work behind the scenes, building relationships, encouraging local leaders, disciple people on a one on one base through trust. I am a spiritual father to many.

Lidia: I enjoy cooking and baking and doing crafts with other ladies and girls around the table, while talking about faith and family issues.

Prayer Requests

• Pray for unity and cooperation among the local leaders and Churches
• For wisdom, patience and love to restore relationships
• That the people will return to their first love for Jesus
• Pray that we will never get tired of being Christians
