We are praising the Lord for the strength and courage he has blessed us with so far. We started with an exciting trip in Chicago. God pulled many strings to get us through the airport in order to make our flight. We were very excited to meet our team in Miami and traveled many hours through the night and morning to finally arrive here in Oruro about noon. Oruro is on the same time as MI. Arlene is praising the Lord for today was much better. I got very ill from the elevation, but after rest and some med and many prayers was able to carry on with the busy schedule of today. We began with a team breakfast and praise service. Nelda left with her interpreter Diego for her area in the high mountains -area norte. They prayer walked, talked to many children and presented the gospel to four and three accepted at that time. Arlene is working with Irving in another area of the mountains, I shared the gospel cube with one and she prayed to accept. After lunch Nelda and I went to a church and presented Moms in Touch to about fifteen moms. They were very excited and plan to bring many more of their friends tomorrow. We then went back to our designated mountain community and showed the Jesus film. It was out door and very cold on the mountain. Nelda's team had over 50 children and 14 who prayed. Several more saw the movie but did not stay after. Arlene's group had 15 pray the Salvation prayer after the movie. We are excited for tomorrow and the days to come. Thank you for your prayers. We miss all of you! Together we are reaching the world for Christ. Praise the Lord for all He has done, is doing and will do here in Oruro.
