Bob is practicing piano for his last performance with the praise team at Central this Sunday--at least until we return from home ministry. We fly to Virginia on Monday the 25th to begin 4 months of visiting with family and with those of you who partner with us in the work here in Santiago.
It's not easy to leave. God is really at work in the Central Church, and it's fun and challenging to be a part of it. On Friday, Bob and 30 of the young men (and a few not so young men) from church camped out on the beach, talking around a campfire until the wee hours of the morning! They dragged in on Saturday in time to rest up for Sunday's activities. Eight men and women were baptized after church on Sunday--one of them was Juan Pablo, a young man in our Wednesday night small group who came to the Lord through the basketball ministry. Central has no baptistry; so after church we all piled into cars to go to another church across town. Tuesday night, Bob attended a meeting of the small group leaders at Central. He came home rejoicing after hearing all that God is doing in the various groups.
Please pray for continued unity in the church and for us while we are in the states. Pray that we will be an encouragement to the churches we visit. Thanks.
