We have been encouraged at the way so many of our international pastor friends have been able to step up and keep their ministries functioning and bearing fruit, during the Pandemic of 2020! We have been blessed to be able to “attend” online church services in Mexico, Ecuador, Colombia, Uruguay, Chile, Nicaragua, Spain and Pakistan. We have also “visited” churches in Arizona, Michigan, Kansas, Florida, Texas, California, Oklahoma, North Carolina, Ohio, Delaware, Illinois and Missouri.
We are still hoping to make it to Ecuador in the fall. Although, there has been talk that the government won’t ease up restrictions until the end of the year. The quarantine restrictions are still pretty severe.
Our online teaching continues and we are so grateful that it was already in place before all of this happened. We have expanded to include some meetings we normally would have taken care of in person.
We are grateful for the good response to our request for Pandemic Relief Funds. Our pastors in Ecuador are very happy to have some help during this difficult time. So many people are seriously suffering. We will continue to make sure anything marked Pandemic Relief or PR will go directly and quickly to help some of God’s choice servants.
We recently confirmed a meeting in an actual church building for July in Texas. We are accepting invitations and are currently available for either video-based reports or personal visits. If there is anything we can do for you, we would welcome that opportunity.
We are so thankful to those who, with your prayers and financial support, make it possible for us to continue to do our part in the fulfillment of the Great Commission.
We had a great week with the students at EEC in Colombia!
