Already seeing the harvest!

Over the 10 days many relationships have been made. That was the intention of the ministry project here in Iquitos. However, this impact was not limited to the villages where we did medical clinics and Jesus Film showings. Brother George was unable physically to go or stay at each site for the length of the day as the heat and humidity have been oppressive. After resting up each day he was out on the town making relationships
wherever he went. There are always street kids selling their wares and eventually they target hostels where large groups of Americanos are staying. They come to know our schedule and are at the front door as we come and go. Many of us in the group have taken Juan & Antonio under our wings and we paid the boat driver to bring them to our Jesus Film showing Saturday night at Gabriela Nuñez. Well, last night at our worship service we had 5 new souls come along with us - Juan, Antonio, another friend of theirs, Liz & Laidy. Laidy owns a t-shirt shop where George went shopping and Liz is her adult daughter. They were all introduced and welcomed by the pastor of the church and we are confident that follow up will occurr. We have been humbled and privileged to already be seeing the fruits to our labors. The best is yet to come!!!
