Our God is “able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think” and He proves that to us consistently! Planting a new church can bring feelings of excitement and anticipation for all that God can do, but having a front row seat to watch God work in lives is unlike anything else. We have the privilege to minister to new people each week and invest the word of God into their lives. What could be more rewarding and exciting than that? Through your prayers, investment, and partnership in missions trips you are an integral part of the ministry God is doing here in Peru!
Update on Redentor
God has truly been blessing our efforts and your investments in Redeemer Baptist Church. We have met many new folks, seen several saved, and have many interested in and starting discipleship with us. This month we have seen a young single mother and her teenage son profess Christ! In just the first few weeks of their new faith, they are already facing opposition from the enemy. Where God is working we can be sure the enemy will do all he can to oppose, but our God is our strength and comfort in tribulation! Please pray for this young family and for God’s continued work in them.
The Fulfillment of a Long-Held Dream
What began as a dream years ago we are beginning to see come to fruition and seeing fruit that will last for eternity. We have been faithful to invest time visiting the surrounding neighborhoods and inviting them to come and be a part of what God is doing. The response has been encouraging! It seems apparent that this church has been an answer to prayers for many, and will be an outlet of God’s grace in this community. I believe God is working in hearts and lives, I can’t wait to see all that He does!
Family in Ministry
We had several family members visit us here on the field in June. My sister and her husband came as well as my in laws. They are great about hopping in to the ministry and are up to do anything along side us. It is a blessing and encouragement to have a family who would invest their time off in our family and the ministry here. Our prayer is that anyone who spends time in the ministry here would take back home with them a burden for Peru and a greater desire to serve Him wherever they are.
As we press forward in hope and expectation we are reminded of all of the ways God has provided up to this point, including bringing us in contact with YOU! Thank you for your faithfulness and prayers for our family.
New Church Plant!
We’ve been asking for prayer about a new church plant for the last few months. God has given us clarity and direction on planting Redeemer Baptist Church in an area of the city called “Bustamante”. This is the area we started a bible study in earlier this year. There is a strong presence of Mormon and Jehovah’s Witness outreach, and we believe there is a great need for the gospel! Would you pray for us as we seek to raise $200,000 to purchase a property and building to provide a lighthouse of hope in this urban community?
SUPPORT ADDRESS UPDATE:
Vision Baptist Missions, Inc. and the Our Generation Training Center have been praying for God to provide space for the ministry to expand. In February 2022, through the giving of many generous individuals and churches, God provided an excellent property in Dawsonville, Georgia with several buildings. We are very excited about the property the Lord has given us and the opportunities to expand into the future. We are so thankful for how the Lord has blessed our mission. One thing that also comes with this blessing is a new mailing and support address. Please begin sending all mail and support to the following:
Vision Baptist Missions
Attn: Josh Miller – Peru
PO Box 647
Dawsonville, GA 30534
