Peru en Mis Manos




Telling the story of the Wordless Book

Singing "El amor de Dios es maravilloso"
(The love of God is marvellous.)



The last of the centers we visited



San Juan de Lurigancho





Marcelo sharing the gospel

A little skit

Singing about the love of God

The little ones listening intently

Singing "Yo tengo un amigo que me ama; su nombre es Jesus"
(I have a friend who loves me; his name is Jesus)

Ready to go and waiting...our bus was more than an hour late.

On July 16 La Molina Christian Schools partnered with over 20 churches to go out into Lima and share the gospel with approximately 2,000 people. About 320 of us, including students, staff, and parents, went out that day, and each person we ministered to receieved a gift and a New Testament.
I had the privilege of going with 8 of my 5th graders and our administrative secretary, Claudia Sommerkamp, to a district of Lima called San Juan de Lurigancho. San Juan de Lurigancho is home to 1.2 million very poor people. We visited three different "aldeas infantiles" or government run pre-schools.

What a joy to see these pictures. I am praying that the seed sown will yield much fruit in these young lives.
