Dear Trinity Folks, I wanted to write and give you a brief update on our mission to Trujillo, Peru. I could not be more proud today of our team. Our medical personnel saw around 70 - 80 persons today. Some who were members of a church here called Larco where Allen and Sandi Smith attend. Others came from the community... a number of which were either unchurched or Roman Catholic in background... very nominal. We were able to share the gospel openly with the people who came to the clinic. We had just the right number of folks to pull off this clinic. Tomorrow is exspected to be even more busy with mostly people from the community coming. It is truly amazing how little medical care and attention people get here. The VBS team worked today in a very poor squatter community called Los Pinos. They did an exceptional job and were very well received. The Wichensau (not spelled correctly) church that we worshiped in this past Sunday is attempting to plant a daughter church in the community. It is an extremely poor community. We do not have poverty like this. It is good to have the opportunity to remember in a tangible way the poor. The kids on our team have done an outstanding job so far. Last night in the English service the Larco church which is held once a month, we worshipped with our missionary friends and others who are attempting to learn English. Craig Buettner did an outstanding job testifying to God's amazing grace in saving Kennedy. It was truly anointed of the Lord and very impactful. We have two wonderful missionaries that we support in Allen and Sandi Smith and their three beautiful girls.. Our team has already in a short time had a significant ministry of encouraging the missionary staff that are here. We have a woman who left her law practice in Mississippi about six months ago to become a missionary here. Her name is Aileen. She has made this trip so enjoyable. Thank the Lord for Aileen. We are eating tonight at the home of the Smiths. I wish you could be here to see our team in operation. It would make you extremely proud to be connected with Trinity and to call these folks your friends. Thank you for your support and prayers without which none of this would be possible or fruitful. Anytime you feel led of the Lord to pray for us please do so. So far, the Lord has been gracious to allow all of us to have good health. Today Robert Glover, Dale's son, is grieving the death of a fraternity mate from his days at Auburn who fell asleep driving a tractor cutting grass on a golf course in Columbus, GA. He fell off and was run over by the tractor. Please pray for Robert. We are conducting a women's conference for one of the churches tomorrow afternoon. Pray for Scottie as she speaks about 'Never Beyond Hope.' I will speak briefly on the life of Esther as an example of never being beyond hope. We have a panel of our women that will then answer questions from the women who are planning to attend. I would ask you to pray for me as I translate for the doctors in the clinic as well for the women tomorrow in the conference. It is thoroughly rewarding but totally exhausting. I remember this feeling of mental exhaustion from my days of learning Spanish in Costa Rica. Pray for the Lord to anoint me with the ability to recall vocab and have fluidity of expression. Enough for now. Grace and peace to you all! Dick
