Dan and Liz Thompson write from southern Chile:
The main service in Liquiñe starts at two in the afternoon, therefore we have the opportunity to minister to shut-ins before the service. We have had the privilege to visit families who as first generation Christians were once pillars of the church. We leave early from the camp and travel an hour on dirt roads to spend a few hours sharing from God’s Word and singing hymns in the homes. We also love to hear how they came to Christ and served while their health and years permitted. After the visit, we head back to church and enjoy the fellowship with the rest of the members. This new area of ministry is an encouragement to the older generation in Liquiñe and also a great way to train up the new generation to minister to them.
It’s hard for us to believe that it has been three years since we have seen many of you. We are starting to plan our 2015 home assignment ministry. To make our time in the US more effective, we need your help. We will most likely land sometime in early March and will try to be back in Chile by the end of November 2015. This is how you can help:
- Pray we can find replacements during the 9 months we will be gone.
- Pray that we can schedule adequate time with each of our supporting churches and individual supporters.
- Pray for new church and individual support contacts.
- Pray for our children. They are excited, but it will be a different life than what they are used to here in Chile.
- Pray for God to use us as we seek to promote what He is doing through the camping ministry in Chile.
