The Children lining up to get their feet washed and new shoes.
We have had a great first couple of days with most of Saturday and Sunday being travel. Then this morning we had 2 hours up the mountains. Yes we mean up the mountains. We could see right off the cliff a long way down and even had to back up a few times just to make some turns in some places. Needless to say that is a very major prayer request to pray for us as we travel each day.
As we reached 12400 feet we were finally at the village. The children came running and clapping for us and cheering as we arrived. We set up then to wash their feet in one room and share the Gospel to the parents in another room. When the day was over around 300 men, women, and children had prayed to receive Christ. We also picked up a pastor and his wife about half way up the mountain that are going to start a church there and beging discipling the people of this village.
Some of you know that we are staying at a military base in Ecuador. They sent 6 men with us today as well into the mountains. By the end of the day they too all bowed their knee and gave their life to Christ as well. WOW!!! What a day.
Please continue to pray as the Lord leads you to pray for us. We are all very excited and humbled to be on this trip. We are thankful to all of you who have supported us financially to be here and most of all supporting us in prayer.
We Love each of you and to all of our families know that we are praying for you daily.
