Well I've finally decided to start blogging. I've been living in Peru for the last year and if God wants, will live here for another year. Over a year ago, while going to school and working in Nashville, TN, I decided that I was going to take a step of faith and move to Peru to serve God. I didn't know how or what I would be doing but I said to myself if God wants me to clean bathrooms then that's what I'll do. Well it ends up that once in a while I do have to clean a bathroom.
Now I wish I could say that I have this attitude now that I'm actually down here. But I don't. Sometimes I do but most times I catch myself thinking either "when will I finish these tasks so that I can get done the things that really matter" or "I deserve better than this" or "the people are really going to appreciate me after the see that I've done this for them".
But the fact is that God determines what really matters, I am an unprofitable servant, and that the reason I'm down here is not to serve men but to serve God. I'm glad that God has given the opportunity to serve him in other ways such as in the music ministry, sharing the gospel with people, and teaching children the bible but I'm also glad has me clean the bathroom once in a while :)
I'm taking my vacation this week so I'm not going to write much. But I did want to post some recent pictures that show what's been going on. This is a group that goes weekly to minister in a community called Santa Rosa De Villa. Jose who ministers to the adults is not in the picture. The group rotates every week but most of these people go regularly(Top Left). Sally is training Rudy to run the sound board (Top Right). About three weeks ago Pastor Brian baptized six people of the church in Surco (Below). It was so beautiful. We worshiped the Lord with music while people were getting baptized and when Arturo (seen in the picture) was being baptized I was so choked up I couldn't sing.
