Peru Mission Plan

We are developing a foreign mission plan to be carried out to Peru my home-country. Realising that thegospel must be taken out into all the world and also the community, we are turning our focus to aparticular land. The plan involves asking and answering a key questions:1. Why? Why must we reach out?2. Who? Who are we? What skills do we have? What sort of congregation are we?3. Where? Where are we situated? What is our context?4. What? What are we going to do, in order to share the love of God in Christ with the people of thatarea in SouthAmerica?5. When? What is our goal to make?

We start by listening humbly and prayerfully to God as he speaks to us in Scripture and reveals his way.We need also to listen to one another: we are surer of Gods guidance when we agree together. Scripturetells us about Gods mission to the world Matthew 28:19,20. This is the story that we are called to tell.The Local Congregation. Every Congregation is able to make disciples and there is a clear need forplanting and equipping churches as the fast growth of the new congregation is done. According to the2006 Census, 98.3% of the Peruvian population over 12 years old declared themselves as Christians(89% as Catholics , 6.7% as Evangelicals , 2.6% as of other denominations ), 1.4% as non-religious ,0.002% as Muslims , and 0.2% did not specify any affiliation. Most Peruvians are Catholics, although onlytwo-thirds participate in the liturgy and services. The main authorities of this church are in Lima,Arequipa, Trujillo and Cusco. One of the most important celebration is in honour of the Lord of Miracles .There are also many festivities in Lima .

Picture taken at the local church building in Requena town, Peru jungle July 2010

At the Church of Christ the local missionary is named Victoriano Goas, he and his family work so veryhard at the Lords work, there are over 30 members that meet together and they are very lovely andsupportive every one of them support this fine work. Time we got there we had a meeting to coordinateon what every one were gonna help out on areas such as: evangelism, hands out of church invitation and

flyers, at the children bible class or VBS and Ladies bible lessons. Ladiess Conference was taught andlesson was: The Blessings of the faithful Christian woman and everything was a successful job in the Lord.On VBS class (3 days) was a very nice experience and many blessings, because thanks God first daythere were 50, second day 59 and third and last day 75 kids and we divide on three areas: the younger,the older children and teenagers.

With the younger (3-6 years old) were leading sister Gracy Goas with Jessica Ruiz, with older kids (7-10years) were working our sister Blanca Goas with teenagers were teaching the lessons Luis Juarez,Helmut Garcia. After these VBS lessons there were a bible conference that was held by our brother whowork for the labor; Joe and Kevin Ruiz, and it lasted 4 days. This trip was a great blessing to be ableworking on this spiritual matter, because there were brethren who were out of the church and theyrepented and were restored to the Christs body and we had 4 repenting people. Message was powerfulsince it came from the Lord and two souls were added into Lords church a young lady named Rosa

Anglica Nuve and Mister Pinedo an old denominational pastor and from now on he is a true Christian andwants us to visit his village as soon as possible to spread out the gospel down there a town calledTamanco about 25 hours away from Iquitos on boat and 10 hours from Requena community.

We are very grateful God on this trip to Requena have could meet our brethren in the Faith, specially theGoas family, they are very devoted for the Lord and support a lot to the church in Requena, and each of them are fearful to our Father. We pray very much for them: Gracy, Blanca, Priscila, Paulina, Silveria,Nicolas, Zorayda and all church members up there so God bless them physically and spiritually.

Back to Iquitos. During our way back to Iquitos, to keep up on the bible conference, we noticed thatchurch buildings floor was not in a good looks, so with moneys help from some congregations abroad

where our brother Joe Ruiz works, we could buy small stone and pieces of smashed concrete to use thatas a floor filled into bad one that we used to step on and worship as a church, but on this trip we hadsome brothers from Requena: Ruben Aguilar, Denis Del Aguila, Victoriano Goas (Requenas localmissionary) and his son Nicolas and they were truly a great help on the church floors work, and we haveall helped out on that area (Kevin and Joe Ruiz, Luis Juarez, Helmut Garcia, and Gabriel) on the concretetask for the church buildings floor in Iquitos, we thanks to the help of these above named brothers andwork was done in about three days and may God bless this work that we did over there. After working,we have gone out to distribute church flyers out the Iquitos streets, to invite to all neighborhood and kidsaround the area. Conference that was held in Iquitos main speakers were our brothers Joe and KevinRuiz.

After trip on Ruiz Family going back Lima so the bible conference goes on there being held at StoneBridge a congregation located at Lima north area for about three days they returned for MS later on. Wemade the follow up staying in Iquitos for about ten more days to keep on teaching the bible lessons aboutGods historical ages through the Bible and way how a true Christian must worship God and Plan of Salvation and we never stop doing that kind of teaching every night we gathered altogether at the churchbuilding to sit down and learning more about Gods word. And daily in the temple, and in every house,they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ. Acts 5:32 This work was done by Helmut Garcia andhis brother in law Luis Juarez a faithful church workers from Montecarlo congregation in Lima Peru inabout almost 40 days spending time with two congregations at the Peruvian jungle or more known asAmazon an amazing place to work at and spread out the good news of our Lord.

We wish that all dedicated and full passioned workers are able to come over at this amazing place to work at those places where the New Testament church is almost new for local people up there and realize that it has a tremendous reward on helping to those who are new believers out on areas such as: evangelism,vbs, teaching and all Bible lessons and we wanna let know that they really need us and in a near future toget and purchase a speedy boat or not too big ship to sail away to the Amazon river and to spread out the sound doctrine of our Lord on every tribes and villages where Lord's church is not known right thereare we ready to accomplish this great task and give them out a big push on it all? May Lord bless this

place on the earth and we are sure that God's wonders will be done if all of us to get involved insupplying all these needs to our brethren at the peruvian jungle where job is still growing up! Let's makethis good effort to come true indeed!!!

Congregational Mission request The few we have tend to multitask while others are happy for them to do so. There is a tendency for whatto get involved. These are what we must achieve:

We need to seek out and encourage more people to get involved and share the load. We need to encourage all our church members who wanna make any kind of mission work in

learning from people who have been there on a foreign field. We need to spread Gods word out the nation so each member be a potential missionary on every

place where we are. We need to build on this and encourage more fellowship opportunities and engage more people in

this. The challenge is for us all to empower people and trust them and allow them to focus on every

need where church needs more involvement while exercising a supporting role.

Any kind of support about this job and so on you can reach to us and to make contact me to the infohere:
