Ibarra’s First Encounter

“Since, then, we know what it is to fear the Lord, we try to persuade men.” -2 Corinthians 5:11   Everyday I find myself understanding more about the truth of God and realizing that mediocrity not only doesn’t cut it with God, it’s spiritually unhealthy.

Encountering Christ

We had our 4th Encounter this past weekend with 49 total in attendance (22 from Ambato). Once again the Holy Spirit showed up big time and lives were forever changed. Many experienced forgiveness, restoration of relationships and a new hope found through a genuine encounter with God. It was a mountaintop experience for sure – which was just the beginning as they will now enter into our “Post-Encounter” discipleship classes followed by leadership courses.

Virtual Prayer Walk: La UNSA

La UNSA is the main university in Arequipa. Many of these students keep extremely busy schedules and have no time for anything outside of school. They are swamped with their class schedule, practicums and study time.  A common excuse the 40/40’s receive is that there is just no time for God. Your school year may have […]
