Church Retreat



November 14 the church gathered at my place for a weekend retreat. Our thoughts and attention were focused on the topics of service and mission. Lots of sharing together. Praying for each other. An uplifting time.

LST Opens Doors



The LST ministry continues to open doors. To meet new people. Share the Bible in English. Speak to groups that want to practice their English. Here are two pictures. One sharing dinner with Daniel's family and their neighbor, Mariano. Both Daniel and Mariano read with me. And an invitation to share with a group of Leonidas' students in his hometown of Monte Cristo, East of Cordoba. A farm community. Pray for this ministry as we reach out to share God's Word and love in this world.

LST September/October 2008




September 21, Mary Stephens, Terri Coffey and Mickey Cole arrived in Cordoba. The second LST team for 2008. They came from the South Plains church in Lubbock, TX. They worked long hours for three weeks. Below are pictures of just a few of the lives they touched. They also saw different parts Cordoba from old cathedrals to the nearby mountains. Ambssadors for Jesus! The church has been blessed by their lives and service. Thank you girls!

People They Touched

LST Party Times


The workers host weekly parties that serve to bring the church and readers together to meet each other. They're lots of fun!

My Dear Friend Down River


Eileen Osacar came to live in Cordoba,Argentina in 1948. Married an Argentine doctor. After being widowed in 1991, she moved to their ranch which is located down river from my house. Her son, Claudio, was a member for many years in the Alto Alberdi church. Eileen has hosted many through the years in her home. I came to know her in 2002. She's a dear person. A good friend. Some of you have heard her name mentioned over the past few years. Pray for Eileen.
