About The Peruvian People
The Peruvian people are diverse with estimates of 32 million people in this South American nation. Indigenous people make up 45% of the population with 92 distinct languages spoken in Peru. The tribal people in the Amazon Basin live in a beautiful yet harsh environment. 70% of the people in the Loreto Region of Peru are living at the poverty level or below. This area is in Northeastern Peru and is the largest region of the Amazon. Malaria, Dengue Fever and other illnesses oppress the people living here. Yet many times we hear the testimony from individuals thanking God for the blessings they have. It is a privilege to work among these humble people. This region is where much of the focus for Amazon Outreach takes place and we enlist your prayers for the light of the gospel to travel to every tribe and village.

The gospel is good news!
It was a warm and beautiful day in the jungle. My name is Raimundo, I’m an evangelist and I had been helping construct a new church building in the village of San Ramon on the Chapuri river. The Condoshi (Kandozi) tribe live in this remote region and we were working hard in the heat of the day when news arrived from the neighboring village that one of the Condoshi young men killed a government worker and wounded the boat driver as well. He had been drunk and got into a dispute when he fired his gun. This was terrible news as the village this government official was from was the third person killed by Condoshi people in recent times and fear began to spread among the Condoshi. The people grabbed some belongings and fled into the deep jungle away from the river fearing retribution. I went with them and to be honest I feared for my life as well. Then I remembered what God has called me to do and I prayed for courage and boldness. I took this opportunity to share the gospel with the hundreds of families that were in a time of crisis. More than three hundred people received the good news and came to faith in Jesus Christ. When they asked me what I thought should be done I shared that the young man should be taken to the proper officials and police. We came out from the deep jungle back to the river and met with the police who had come to investigate. A meeting was set to meet with the officials from the village of the murdered man and the young Condoshi perpetrator was brought out and handed over to the police. In the midst of terrible news, the good news of Jesus saves, redeems and brings wisdom from above. A tribal warfare was averted as the gospel is lifting people out of desperate situations. The Kingdom of God is advancing and we ask for your prayers to travel to places of darkness and death with the light of the gospel.

The Wedding
My baby girl Emily was just married on June 18 to an incredible young man, Paul Sliwa in Palmer, Alaska. The emotions I experienced were joy, happiness and gratitude for the grace of God. It has been beautiful to watch the journey they lived out through their courtship and engagement. Living for the applause from Heaven and running counter culture to a generation in which purity, honor and commitment are no longer core values leading up to marriage. After the amazing celebration (hours of dancing and laughter) and reflecting on what I was privileged to experience the Holy Spirit prompted me with the memory of another wedding that is soon to take place. When what is written in Revelation 19:7 becomes reality . “Let us rejoice and be glad and give Him glory! For the wedding of the Lamb has come and His bride has made herself ready.” I had spent the previous month in Peru, traveling to many churches (the bride of Christ) where the love the people had for God and each other was tangible, pure and vibrant. When individuals spend more time criticizing the Bride of Jesus than loving who Jesus loves, my spirit grieves. Jesus loves His bride, He bled for her, died for her and has the greatest investment in all of history as a groom. Why would we tear down who Jesus loves? In the posts to come I will be sharing testimonies of redeeming love that will encourage you and elevate your view. There is a bride that is making herself ready in the Amazon Jungle and we can rejoice and be glad and give Him glory! Thank you Paul & Emily for being a modern day picture of Revelation 19:7.

Peru Trip – May
I’m looking forward to being with our good friends Jeff & Lexi Centers and Riverland Church in Summerville, SC this weekend. We have had the privilege of being a part of their journey to plant this life giving church and to witness the testimonies of the gospel of Jesus transforming people. Then on Monday I’m flying to Lima, Peru and connecting with our MEPI pastors in the capitol city and then on to Iquitos to prepare for our teams that will be coming in late May and June.

Welcome
Our mission is to make disciples, train leaders and plant churches. We accomplish this by sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ, manifesting the power of the Holy Spirit and a demonstration of love that transforms people.
