First Baptist Church, we are thrilled to share with you the latest report from your church plant, Iglesia Evangélica Bautista del Nuevo Horizonte, in Piura, Peru. Construction continues on the church building while the pastor and congregation are actively sharing the Gospel in the community. Currently, 30 adults and 35 children attend the church. Thank you for your continued prayers.
Construction Progress
Construction progress is consistent with the building of walls and rooms according to the architecture plan.
Challenges Encountered
One challenge facing the church is to share the Gospel with everyone in the community. The church is focused on helping people understand how much they need to know God and receive Christ as their Savior.
Next Steps
- Continue to remove soil from the interior area of the building in anticipation of laying the floors
- Continue to construct the interior walls
- Build the bathrooms
- Plaster the walls and prepare the building for painting
Church Activities
- The pastor has been visiting the homes of children who are served by the church to get to know parents and share the Gospel.
- The church leadership is preparing an inauguration service for the building.
Testimony of Impact
I am very grateful to God for planting this church. To know God and to receive other help from the church family is a great blessing. Because of this church, children are learning how to pray. I thank God that His Word is being preached, marriages are being mended, and families are receiving help. People in this community face problems every day and they need God’s grace and mercy at work in their lives.
