Much love,

The seed, the soil, the sun, & the water (essentials for the skimmers):

The trip to Cuzco was wonderful, 22 hour bus ride. I got to bond with several of the Xtreme Team members.
I ask y'all to pray & write encouraging letters to the missionaries on the Xtreme Team. (*See below for directions).
I just learned that i'll be sent to the Tigre Quichua people group in northern Perú. Please continually keep them in your preayers. In understand almost all of them speak Spanish so i'll be learning the Quichua language as well. Time to pray!
The manure & fertilizer: (extras for the non-skimmers)

Dear rest of the Body,

In a previous update, i mentioned "aggravating rules" i was enduring here on the [Xtreme] Team. Please let me clarify that doesn't mean "bad". The Team's rules are often aggravating, but necessary at the same time. For example, we aren't allowed to go to the store or even walk around by ourselves. We must go as a group of 5. This can be very inconvenient (and aggravating), but is very necessary. Biblically, it gives us constant accountability, guarding us from temptation. Also, it helps build us as a team.

*Speaking of my team, i have a request from all of you, especially the ones who speak Spanish. If you don't speak Spanish, no worries; i'll be more than willing to translate for you. Please write an encouraging letter to at least one of the missionaries in training, telling them how you are praying for them and how you will continue to do so. I invited them to write letters to y'all, as well. I told them that my prayer partners were not just people on the other side of the world. They are your brothers & sisters in Christ as much as they are mine.

Here are their names:

Edgar (native Peruvian, of the Yene Tribe, 27 years old)
Lucio (native Peruvian, of the Yene Tribe, nephew of Edgar)
Alex (native Peruvian, of the Yene Tribe, 17 y/o)
Levi (native Ecuadorian, good friend of mine while i was in Quito, 24 y/o)
Jeff (native Texan, Journeyman with the IMB [International Mission Board], 24 y/o)
Arminda (native Peruvian girl)
Marili (native Peruvian girl)
Marshall (native Louisianan, missionary with "Pioneers", husband & father of 9)
Alex (son of Marshall; his mom & 8 younger siblings stayed behind in Inquitos, Perú, while he & Marshall came to this 3-month training)
Caleb (native Peruvian, 24 y/o)
Vicente (native Peruvian)
Maria
During this training period, we will be living in huts we are going to build. The girls will be living in huts former trainees (including Bobby Lane ) built. We'll be learning about 30 stories from the Bible that we will share with people, most of whom have never heard the Gospel. Most don't have a written Bible in their language or are illiterate; therefore, this oral Bible will probably be the only One they will ever study. Also, we will be learning how to live in the jungle (that's why we'll be living in huts) as well as how Biblical church functions & perhaps, a few other skills that we will need such as medical training. This training session will have the most trainees the Xtreme Team has ever seen. Please pray for the leadership & organization of the Xtreme Team.

More Prayer Requests:

Pray for our health as we are in the jungle.
Pray that we'd maintain a teachable spirit.
Pray we will become the men & women our Lord created us to be.
I love Jesus!
