San Juan de Lurigancho: Saturday outreach




Saturday afternoons all the students at the Bible college go to their respective outreach ministry teams all around Lima there are about four different teams that go out during the weekend. The outreach that I am in about an hour bus ride away to a community at the foot of a hill or more like a mountain.
In the afternoons by the time we get there there is children's ministry for the kids up the mountain and the kids who live near the facility that Calvary Chapel San Juan de Lurigancho has been using which does not have running water or its own electrical source (at night the neighbors have been lending their electricity to the building). So there are two groups one that stays at the facility and one that goes up the hill. I went with the group up the hill.
There were a lot of kids there. We played soccer and different games with them and then sang worship, had the lesson, and then colored.
After children's ministry, in the evening there is a youth group service taught by Javier (aka Javicho, the guy teaching in the front of the picture.) It was a blessing being there. Pray that all the ministers there effectively show the love of God and are filled with the Spirit as they serve the Lord and those around.
