Praise God with us in all He has done through these Strategy Coordinator Partners this past year!  Pray for perseverance and growth in the new believers and the developing maturity of emerging leaders in the areas where these churches minister.  Pray also for our faithful national partners as they work alongside of our US partners.  Pray that they will be renewed and refreshed in these "slower" months.  Continue to pray for the lost of Peru.  The fields are still white!


Please also pray for our team.  Currently REAPNorth consists of, the Olsons, Mindy McCord, Tommy Smith, the Glovers (currently on stateside assignment), and Jim Gilstrap (currently on stateside assignment).  As of January 2012, we are officially joining forces with REAPSouth and are becoming one team!  We are excited about this and are praying for a smooth transition.  Please pray also for REAPSouth team members, the Llorens, and Candy Bruce.  Pray that we will all be unified in the Spirit and consequently in our ministry.  Praise God with us as well for our amazing long-term volunteers.  What would we do without them??


Pray for this upcoming year- the changes and decisions that lay before us.  Pray also for our supervisors, Marty and Melissa Childers.  Pray for rest for them!  Pray for wisdom and guidance for them as well.


Merry Christmas to all of you!  I hope the season is bright and full of joy because of the hope that is Christ Jesus.  We are so grateful for all of you and the sweet aroma of your prayers!


Blessings,

Hello to all you beautiful prayer warriors out there! We are so thankful for your service to the Father in your prayers for our team. What would we do without your faithful intercession?

Please be praying this week for David Olson and Brian Henderson as they lead a vision trip to the Pasco area of Peru. Pasco's capital city, Cerro de Pasco is referred to as the "roof of the world" and rightly so with an elevation of 14,500ft. Pray for the teams health and safety at such a high altitude.


This group is from Watson Chapel Church from Pine Bluff, Arkansas. Pray for them as they pray and look this week for what God is calling them to. Pray for clarity and opportunities to share. Pray for endurance and creativity in thinking.

Thank you all so much!
Blessings,
Cameron Olson

Last week this team from Crossroads Church ministered in Panoa, Peru. They held a vet clinic- a unique way to get into harder to reach places and make some good contacts and share the gospel. Praise God for the work He did through this group! They were able to show the Jesus film in Pachitea Quechua! How exciting for this people group to see this film in their own language. Pray that the contacts made will be followed up with by local believers and the work will continue and the ministry flourish! Praise the Lord!

Good News from the Jungle!



News from our teammates, Jeremy and Crystal Nelson:

Humble Area First Baptist Church, TX made a video of their March 2011 trip. They provided leadership for a leadership development/training as well as an eye clinic. It was a really amazing trip and I'm so glad they put together a video of some of those moments. Jeremy Nelson and the team were able to begin some solid Biblical teaching with believers, pass out Bibles in URARINA!!, have a Urarina pastor baptize someone for the first time and much more! Praise the Lord for what he is doing among the Urarina.

Pray for Freddy!

Almost two weeks ago, after our weekly Bible study, our friend and newest translator accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior!

Please pray for Freddy in his new walk of faith:

*for his strength to persevere

*to grow closer in his relationship
with Christ each day

*to be a bold and shining light representing Christ to his friends, family, and others

* for his obedience in following God's Word

* for wisdom and discernment in what God wants him to do with his future

Thanks for your prayers! Thanks to God for Freddy's decision to follow Him!
