There are already several photos and videos shared on FB for the work done and\u00a0I&#8217;ll do a separate blog post for this time; but I am so grateful and blessed to have been a part of this group. \u00a0I was blessed by so many of the youth&#8217;s testimonies and watching them live out their faith. \u00a0I am encouraged and look forward to seeing how God moves in their lives. \u00a0I am honoured to have met Pastora Lisa and hear her story and to be able to pray for her as she enters a new stage in her race. \u00a0We walk these journey&#8217;s together and we pray together, we uplift each other and we carry each other. \u00a0No one is alone. As a group we also enjoyed some times of rest together, in Buenos Aires, at Iquazu Falls and a day in Campo.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/c43a2dcd3b904c37e9bebf03e\/images\/8d25be3e-7332-4613-9526-3a6b75cdc7af.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"208\" data-file-id=\"1290017\" \/>\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/c43a2dcd3b904c37e9bebf03e\/images\/2658de0f-b165-4204-b68e-c0b00cca8064.jpg\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\" data-file-id=\"1290021\" \/>\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/c43a2dcd3b904c37e9bebf03e\/images\/f282fb00-8cf7-4a69-a45d-07cdc3306dfd.jpg\" width=\"200\" height=\"150\" data-file-id=\"1290037\" \/>\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/c43a2dcd3b904c37e9bebf03e\/images\/101f9589-d61c-4c88-8f00-ac6e44df303a.jpg\" width=\"200\" height=\"150\" data-file-id=\"1290041\" \/><\/p>\n<p>August brings about more travel, more youth, and more growth. \u00a0I am excited to visit El Predio and La Plata after a time of rest in Beratzetagui. \u00a0August is also the time for the Annual Youth Event of the District Sur of Argentine Covenant Churches. \u00a0This will be held in Neuquen. \u00a0I am happy to be part of this event and also to visit and serve the church in Neuquen, where of course, there are more friends and family.<\/p>\n<p>I am also moving forward with studies at North Park University. \u00a0I am taking the Intercultural Ministry Certificate and have made the decision to become a Consecrated Missionary. \u00a0No ordination for me at this point in time; but I&#8217;m not fully saying no &#8211; just not right now. \u00a0These courses mean a lot of reading and preparing while in ministry.<\/p>\n<p>October through till the beginning of December will also be a busy time of travel, serving, events and another Merge group! \u00a0I am praying that some of the Canadian churches; or just a family or couple, will begin planning a trip to Argentina. \u00a0I would love to share this life with many of you! \u00a0Please contact me if you&#8217;re still interested!<\/p>\n<p>I pray that you are all enjoying your summer and times with family and friends. \u00a0Blessings to all of you!<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t forget to note the new contact info:<\/p>\n<p>WhatsApp: \u00a0+5492944314950 &#8211; This is the best mode of contact<\/p>\n<p>Mailing address for the ECCC has changed:<br \/>\nPO Box 2247, Strathmore, AB, T1P 1K2<\/p>\n<p>Mailing address here in Argentina: \u00a0Please advise if you mail anything &#8211; Mail isn&#8217;t the most reliable at this point<\/p>\n<p>Cacique Purran No 4019, Barrio El Frutillar<br \/>\n(8400) San Carlos de Bariloche<br \/>\nProvincia de Rio Negro, Republica Argentina<\/p>\n<div><strong>Prayer and Praise<\/strong><\/div>\n<p>I will forever\u00a0be thankful and grateful\u00a0for each and everyone of you. \u00a0For your prayers, your support, your friendship and your presence in my life.<\/p>\n<p>Praise and gratefulness for the ECCC and the ECC &#8211; it is exciting, wonderful and I am humbled to be a part of this family &#8211; to be a Canadian Covenant Missionary!
