Dear Prayer Team,
I (Judi) wish we could meet personally via Skype or Messenger etc. but this will have to do for now. Life has been almost a blur since we got back to Ecuador and keep on walking in the works that God prepared for is beforehand (Eph 2:10). The last several weeks have been especially humming with events that are not a part of the usual schedule. I'd like to share just a few of those with you.
Luis and Fernanda Alba were married on February 2. They are committed to serving the Lord together. Luis and Fer are part of the church that meets in Ivonne's home. That church family went together to provide most of the wedding and reception. Unbelievers who attended were visibly impacted, and doors were opened for Luis and Fer to continue sharing their faith with people who had been very resistant.
February 9, Nelson and Lolita Narvaez were commissioned as missionaries to Spain. When they understood the house church concept, they committed to sharing the gospel with as many people as they could, and have been instrumental in starting several churches. Their daughters, who are both doctors, live in Spain and they have decided to move there and keep on ministering.
One of the discipleship groups they started is in La Maná, a small town about 5 hours southwest of Quito. February 12 they took Pablo and two of his disciples, Gen and Galo, to meet the group and organize follow-ups. Gen and Galo will return to La Maná every other Wednesday and Pablo will teach via the internet video conferencing on Sunday evenings.
La Maná has long had a reputation for being a center for witchcraft. Praise the Lord with us for this group of new believers and pray for their protection and continued growth.
Thank you for praying!
Pablo and Judi Perez
