This was the first time ever that the President of the ECC has visited our project and the first time in 6 years that we have had a visit from the Executive Minister of Serve Globally.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">We were super blessed to have many very special visitors from the U.S. and all over Latin America that were all here in Ecuador as a part of CIPE. CIPE is a triennial event\/gathering of pastors, missionaries and leaders from all over Latin America, including Colleen, a missionary friend from Argentina, Jochy, a pastor, Christian rapper, missionary from the Dominican Republic!<\/p>\n<p>We had a lot of great memories and new friends made.\u00a0 Here are some of the highlights in pictures.\u00a0 Meeting, chatting and learning from Elizabeth Pierre and her friend Yakong, amazing, just amazing!\u00a0 Having so many leaders come to the project and visit was a definite highlight.\u00a0 The new program we are developing for women coming out of domestic violence (which you will hear more about soon), made necklaces for all the ladies.\u00a0 One of the children who has been reunited with his mom from the home for at-risk children came back for this visit and gave his testimony.\u00a0 We were able to pray for him which was a MAJOR highlight for me (Kim).\u00a0 We had friends, pastors and missionaries over for fajitas!\u00a0 We had the privilege of hearing testimonies from patients from the clinic, whose lives have been touched and changed by the staff and care they have received.\u00a0 We heard Jochy rap!\u00a0 We were able to pray for leaders and pastors from CIPE at our church.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-8700\"

God has brought our lives together to serve Him in any aspect we can. God has given us the vision to start a home for at risk children and a medical clinic in Ecuador, South America. This blog gives you a look into our lives and dreams. We know that we are simple people and often feel like Moses making excuses why others would be better equipped for His purpose. However, we cling to the promises that God has given us and we know that if God has called us, He will also equip us.
