Week 8ish?

hey everyone,
I didn´t get a chance to go to the internet cafe last weeked but i managed to make it today. Last week our teacher was from Trinidad. His name was Farouk Mohamad, he was very wise and had a lot of great things to share with us. The two main topics that he talked on were faith and worship. It is great how every teacher who comes to us has had different life experience and through that they are able to share what they have learned. This week we have a teacher from Canada/U.S. but he was born and raised in Japan. Some things that you can pray about is that some people have been getting sick, i am not sure if it was food poisoning or what. Two of them had to go to the hospital, but they are both better now. Just pray that we would have good health. Also the leaders of the DTS have a lot of work to do. All of the cordination with the churches in the towns we are going to is dificult. Just pray that it would all work out and that they won´t be to stress about it. Next Thursday we are leaving for a mini-outreach in the jungle. I am not sure what we will be doing but you can pray for the people who we are going to and for all the staff and students of the school. We will be returning on Sunday. Another thing that I am sort of anxious about is we don´t know how our outreach teams will be broken up. I have become friends with alot of people so i know some of us will be on seperate teams. I will not find out until we go to Lima. Just pray for the leaders and thay they will have guidance in choosing the teams. Thank you for all of your prayers. God Bless. From your brother in Christ, Christopher

Sorry for not posting

hey everybody,
Sorry I have not been updating my blog lately, but i have been very busy. Last weekend we had a mini-outreach in Iquitos. We worked with a local church and we cleared land for them to build on. We used macheties and shovels. After that we went and put on a presentation a neighborhood. My outreach will be much like this. We will be doing mercy missions, or meeting the physical needs of the people and the church, but we will also be doing drama evangalism. As we travel from town to town we will be hosted by churches. These churches will give us food and have work lined up for us to do. We will be doing drama evangalism in that town and then hooking them up with the church that hosts us. This way the people we reach will be given someone to disciple them. It won´t just be a commitment they made because they saw a drama and then we leave and nothing happened. We are hoping for it to be a changing dicision for these people and the church will support them, because we will not be able to. We got some good new that we recieved a donation that made us able to dig a well for a community along the amazon river. I don´t know all of the details exactly when we will be doing this but it will happen. The base has the equipment and we do it by hand, i am hoping to get pictures of it so i can share it with everyone when i get home. Thank you for your prayers. This week was my birthday, i am now 20. On my birthday only a few people said anything, like they forgot about it, but after lunch they had a surprise party for me. I am going close to all the people here. I am getting used to the cultur and I enjoy it. When i get the intinerary I will post it on here so every one can pray for the town i am in, that would be greatly appreciated. Mom said that people are asking about the blog and I am glad that i can stay connected this way. Another prayer request that i have is for the leadership of the base, they are going through some changes and your prayers will help. My spanish is still rough but i think i am learning. Thank you for all of your prayers and the support you have given me so far.
Love Christopher
