We are sitting in the airport in Bogota. This has been a fruitful trip and we are leaving behind many new friends that we hope one day to see again. We were able to serve both traditional churches and also a budding house church presence that I will look forward to watching from afar. All the same it will be wonderful to be home and in our own bed! A shower that reliably produces hot and cold water wI’ll be nice, too.
Finished the school yesterday. Right now we are waiting for a ride to a local church where Dan is going to preach. The church is a young fellowship that may be interested in being an iglecasa (eeglay-casa, ie, a house church). We have discovered a surprising interest in simple churches.
After a laid-back morning we are teaching the school of leadership to local church folks. These are eager and friendly people. We have less time than in Medellin but things are going well. Pray that we don’t leave anything undone.
We have finished the school of leadership in Medellin including a couple of evenings with pastors talking about house churches and Marriage Rx. Now, it’s of to Bogota for a second presentation. Thanks for your prayers!
We’ve concluded day two of the School of Leadership (50+ attended!) with Jody teaching on A Merged Life with the Father and Julie teaching on A Merged Life with the Son. Then, in the evening, we spent time with several people who were interested in house churches.
Today we will finish the school with Calvin teaching A Merged Life with the Spirit and Dan teaching A Merged Life with the Church. Tonight we get together with some folks to talk about Marriage Rx concepts.
It’s been rewarding and exciting to meet new friends who have received us warmly and to be able to share what the Lord has entrusted to us. We appreciate your prayers!
