Savages in Ecuador: Working together to Proclaim Christ!

A couple of weeks ago we helped with a large team of about 30 people from the States. They were led by Dr. David Sills of Reaching & Teaching International Ministries. Aside from the group there were resident missionaries Christopher & Carol Sills (Global Outreach), Al Rodriguez (International Mission Board), and our selves (Global Outreach). It was a busy but great week.

Christ was proclaimed in four different communities in two different providences of Ecuador, as well as about 20 Indigenous pastors being trained and equipped to reach and lead their people and communities.

We were able to visit a bit with friends (Rick & Melanie Dardar) from our home church Kirby Woods Baptist, Memphis who were with the group, and enjoyed our fellowship with them.

There were plenty of obstacles both personally and as a group throughout the week. As vehicles were breaking down, an accident happened, people were getting sick, roads were blocked, and some in the communities were less than happy to have Christians in their communities. However, throughout it all the name of Christ was proclaimed and God was glorified!

Continue to pray for us, the Sills family, Al Rodriquez, and the indigenous pastors as we work to share the love of Christ to the peoples in this part of the Andes Mountains. Pray God would bless these efforts and His name would be glorified in all that we do.
