We arrived safe in Chile this morning and were given a wonderful greeting at the airport by some of the church members. We then had a four hour drive to Talca and to the church. Here they greeted us again with a big meal. These are wonderful people and it is a privilege to serve Christ with them.
The space where the new sanctuary is still being prepared. We had a tour of the construction area and there is a lot still to do. They are digging holes for the concrete footers and some of the steel has arrived. It will be our task to help them in any way possible this week. We will begin on Monday with the construction.
Tonight we will attend and participate in the college/high school youth service. Sunday we will have church in the morning followed by a trip to a rural area where the church has an existing outreach ministry. The team will do a VBS and interact with the mostly farming community. More on that later.
Thanks for your prayers. We are going to have a blessed week!!
