Mission – Ministry – Life
In less than two weeks we will be back in the UK for a few months and are keen to take up opportunities to talk about our work in Perú and about mission more generally. If you would like to invite us please drop us a line. Or leave a message in the comments section... Continue Reading →
We had a meeting this week to think about evaluating the new training course and how we can continue to improve what we do. It was a good moment to take stock of some of the things that have changed over the last 18 months. Our focus has changed towards developing the skills and character... Continue Reading →
Back in 2013 Esperanza, a small Scottish charity was working to support some pastors & small churches on the Momón river. In time, one of these pastors messed up (ran off with woman younger than his children…..) and left a church with 6 young believers. With Esperanza’s help these three couples (most in their 20’s)...

Hello everyone, I think I forgot to tell you that I was coming back to Peru. And this time I’ve got a friend with me. Paddington came to stay with us at Christmas and was really interested in coming back to Peru, especially since he’s never visited this part of the jungle before. So far... Continue Reading →

Hi everyone It all feels very strange but I’m safely back from my adventure. The last few days have made my brain very fuzzy. It started off on Friday morning when we got the Colectivo from Nauta. (It’s a sort of mini bus with 12-15 seats, and when its full it leaves). Our cases were... Continue Reading →
Hi everyone, This week I’m going to tell you about life here in Nauta. It is very different to England. Most of the houses are made of wood with a metal roof. In our house we collect the rain off the roof to use for water, because it doesn’t just come out the tap. Last... Continue Reading →
