THE 411 IN AREQUIPA
Trip To The States MAY/JUNE 2013
Our annual trip to the states is fast approaching! As always we are very excited about being able to see as many of our supporters, friends and family as we spend time in different states. One of our main focus will be that of building up our monthly partnership. Sometimes we tend to forget that even though the spreading of the Gospel is free; getting it to the people is not, it takes money.
God is expanding the work we are doing in Arequipa; we are know doing a work in Puno and hopefully soon we will also be working in the city of Juliaca! Our heart is to be able to go wherever we can find pastors and churches with a hunger and a thirst to further their churches and the work of the ministry in their churches; who have an open heart for outside help! That is why our ministry slogan is "EXTRA HANDS FOR PASTORS!" We are here to be a blessing encouraging them as well as to help them to equip their people to do the work of the ministry. In the states there are more than enough ministers and ministries traveling to help pastors but not so in Peru! We are grateful to God that now we are able to do just that, traveling to different areas to be a blessing to pastors and their congregations.
Rev. Kevin Smith And Family Plus MARCH 2013
Rev. Kevin Smith will be with us again on March 8-21. This trip he will be accompanied by Kathryn & Victoria Smith (his wife and daughter) and also Jessica Garwick (daughter of our personal friends the Garwicks). Please check our Facebook and ministry blog for updates on their schedule while here.
We had an awesome visit his first trip and are looking for more of the same plus on this his second trip. Actually this will be Rev. Smith's third trip with us but his second trip with us since we have been independent on the mission field! Making plans with three different pastors, possibly four, to develop a schedule for them while here in Arequipa.
Partner Banquet Brunch
Presently we are in the process of planning our first, but not last, ministry partners banquet. This has been something on our hearts for several years and we are very excited that this year we will finally make it happen! As far as the exact date we have not determined that as of yet but will try to finalize it in the weeks to come. We are inviting all our faith ministry partners from all over to meet us in Texas as we will be officially celebrating 13 years on the mission field!
Somehow I forgot to celebrate 10 years on the field so we decided we will celebrate 13 years on the field giving all the glory to God and also to you our faithful ministry partners!
Can you believe how fast the years have gone by? Neither can we!

Faith Ministry Partners / 50 N 2013
As we begin to expand and go forward in our commission in Peru we are believing God for a minimum of 50 new FAITH MINISTRY PARTNERS! There are basically two types of Christians; GOERS & SENDERS! Goers are those who have in their heart the call to go to the foriegn fields while Senders have in their heart to help Goers to GO! The best news of all is that both will get the same reward for doing their part.
Pass this newsletter along to anyone you know has a heart for missions and is looking for good ground to sow into and join hands with.
1Sa 30:24...for as the portion of him who was brought down into battle, so also is the portion of him who is abiding by the vessels--alike they share...
