October 2010
The rain in Spain is definitely back. That means fall is here and the
temperatures are dropping. It was the exact opposite in Chile, though the temperatures are about the same, it is spring.
But cool weather didn't dampen the enthusiasm in the masters level class Mark was teaching. The class was not
as multi-cultural as the one in Paraguay the previous week, but the students were from a wide variety of ministries: pastor,
counselor, youth leader, Wycliffe missionary, school director and church leaders. The classes went well enough that
Tom Keppeler and I were invited by the Worldview Resource Group (Recursos Estratégicos Globales - REG) to teach a masters
level course in Argentina next year.
Even as we encouraged these Latin churches to get
involved with the Lausanne Conference coming up in Cape Town, South Africa, I received an email describing the ways in which
our church near Madrid is going to be involved. These are exciting days for world missions, and for us!
Our church is hosting a global link of the Lausanne Conference on world evangelism in Cape Town, South
Africa, on October 22 and 23. One of our key leaders will be in Cape Town and another is out of the country, so I will
be helping Javier Alvarez in our church to facilitate it. Tom Keppeler is hosting a much bigger link at Elmbrook Church
lasting a week.
Kay is coordinating a Fall Festival October 23 (same day as
the Lausanne Link!), along with Ian and the senior class. It is a find raiser, but we also want it to be an evangelistic
outreach for our neighbors and for people in Camarma.
