Mission Stories

There is no lack of money or resources in this world, only a lack of love. A lack of love? Yes, whether someone is a billionaire or nearly destitute, we all suffer from the same lack of other-centered love, what the New Testament writers called agape. Jesus even admonished the early church—which turned the world upside down with the gospel—“thou hast left thy first love.” (Rev 2:4). What would He say to us living in the most prosperous period of history?

We made two mission outreach flights in April about 300 miles away to villages outside of a small town called San Borja. We could only take 5 out of the 7 volunteers in the airplane since it is too small to carry that many people.

Dear friends, Someone recently asked me how things are going for Grenada Family Network. I am embarrassed to say that it has been about 10 months since my last report. How time flies! So much has happened in the past 10 months that it would take several pages to cover it all.  I wish I…

By the grace of our heavenly Father, after six years we are blessed to be able to continue working in our Nature School as a base for our mission. One of our staff members, Asako Itou who is 35 years old, had Christian grandparents.

With much anticipation, we arrived on Sunday 26 to the city of San Borja. Which is located to the Northwest of the Bolivia, where the indigenous Chimani communities are located. They live at the banks of the Maniquí river and their diet consists of mainly fish, plantain and yucca.
