Harvest

Guatemala Country Leader Pilar Castro reports, “God was faithful in our Peru evangelistic project in June, despite many obstacles. Two weeks before the trip we received an American medical team that worked in two villages in Guatemala, so we did not have time to raise finances. But, we had the conviction to keep planning and one week before we were to go, our Father provided all we needed and more! Twenty-one Guatemalans and Salvadorans worked with five churches in different places in Peru, and we returned to Guatemala with new vision, trusting to remain instruments for God.”

The team reached out to over 1,000 Peruvian men, women and children, and almost 400 made decisions to receive Christ. When a group of men asked to borrow the team’s colourful evangelistic soccer ball they agreed, but said they first wanted to explain about the ball’s colours. At the end of the talk, they challenged the men to receive Jesus, and all 20 agreed! The team also gave training to 125 church leaders and members in creative evangelism, leadership, youth issues and marriage.

Give thanks with Pilar, who comes from Peru and has been working on this outreach for over a year, for what the Lord did during this outreach. Pray that more people will be called to join OM Peru’s representatives, Ani and Mayelo Gensollen, for longer-term ministry.

OM’s role in the Church is to mobilise people to share the knowledge of Jesus and His love with every generation in every nation. OM pioneers and leads initiatives to redeem lives, rebuild communities and restore hope in over 110 countries.
