God has done some amazing things during the month of June!
The Iquito people had their first ever Pastor/Leadership training! Jeremy with a team of 3 men from the South Carolina Baptist Convention put on the conference. They went to Buena Vista, a neighboring village that wants to reach out to the Iquito and to Nueva Atalaya (Iquito village). Randy Shaw, SCBC team leader, said the thing that most impressed him was the hunger to know more about Christ and God's Word. He said that everyone that attended spent most of their time with their faces down while the sessions were going on because everyone was busy trying to capture every word that was being taught.
Humble Area Baptist Church came and visited several of the Urarina communities. In total having almost 75 Urarina accept Christ through storying the Gospel message. 40 of those being from the Santa Teresa community, I mentioned in my previous post. We know that this only happened because of prayer- God turned hearts that were entangled in fear and so hostile towards us a year ago and He has opened them up and set many of the free. Join us in praying for those that have accepted Christ this month, that they would have a deeper understanding of God's word and a desire to follow closely after the Father. That they are seeds that are planted in good/deep soil, that won't be choked out, scorched or wither away. (Matthew 13).
