Hi

I'm off to Chile/Peru in the morning. This will be my longest trip of the year. I will be in Chile for 6 days visiting El Faro and friends and then in Peru for 11 days. Pray for Carla during my absence. She is going today for a stress test on her heart, as the Dr. is checking out more things following a check up she had a week or so ago. We will let you know more about the results of what they find in the futurel

Don Lawrence, preacher at Christ's Church of Fountain Hills is going to work on preparing us a nice brochure and a new DVD down the road. Those will help us a lot.

I'm still seeking out the last of our Big Sisters. I have recently visited churches in Idaho, Arizona, and have other trips planned on my return to other places. Keep praying that God will lift up the last ones we need.

We will be having our next board meeting in San Diego in June.

All our missionary families in Trujillo are getting to know the people in their assigned barrios. They are doing well. They are anticipating the many groups from the U.S. that will be visiting them this summer. I will have more info and pictures after this trip.

God has blessed us with a a lot of great missions helping us prepare our team for the best results in our work.

• We have a large group from from HOPE FOR KIDS INTERNATIONAL that will be in Trujillo in July.
• We have trainers from MEDICAL AMBASSADORS INTER. that will be there in September training our team.
• We have Alfredo Guerrero from SCRIPTURE IN USE who will be there in October to finish his training with the team.

Well, I'm packing to leave and running the last errands.

God bless you all

Thanks for your faithful support and prayers

Pray for open doors and fruit in Peru.

Love

John and Carla
