Johnny
Stewart in Peru
May
2007
For
many years I have been comfortably sitting in the isle of
Ireland doing teams North and South of the Border. However
this year I am, God willing, going to serve for a month
as part of a team of 12 from my University (Jordanstown)
in Peru.
I
leave in the early hours of May 27th. I would appreciate
it if, as a church you could join me in Prayer for this
team. Let me give you some background info.
Who:
12 students from Northern Ireland (in association with Latin
Link)
Pray for unity, that we would be united in Christ and stand
firmly on the wod of God.
Pray for health and safety as with such a large group accidents
are likely to happen, but we will daily put on the armour
of God and pray for his provision and protection.
What: practical work and evangelism
Primarily
we want to introduce everyone we encounter to Jesus, what
a priveledge it is to share that name with our brothers
and sisters all over the globe.
Building a conference centre for the christian Union
Sports ministeries
Teaching English as a 2nd Language
Leading bible studies in English
Where: Peru
Being
part of Latin America we will encounter locals who speak
only Spanish, pray for our translator .
We will be at the university in Lima, the capital city.
T his means we will be living a basic life but many of the
risks associated with poorer countries have been eliminated,
we have runing water and will be living on campus at the
university. We also have close access to emergency services,
but pray we won't need them!!
Why: Jesus
Matthew
28:18-20
And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is
given unto me in heaven and in earth.
Go
ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the
name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
Teaching
them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you:
and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the
world. Amen.
