• The 1st 2008 Xtreme Training is underway! Live and kickin'!

A feast: (extras for the non-skimmers)
Dear royal priesthood (aka. disciples of Christ),
Fausto, an Ecuadorian and Quichua by blood (not by tongue), completed the last training with José, his countryman and Jeff's new partner. He has a heart to reach the Tigre branch of his own people and so will be partnering with me to visit the Tigre in my third visit. There are some complications i want to ask yall to pray about, though. Even though the Quichua house-churches in his area have raised the finances to send him as a foreign missionary to Peru, his own church, a normal one, sadly, is not 100% set on sending him. The powers that be would rather him stay at home, closer to the authority of his home church. In contrast, we (including Fausto, himself) believe the Lord has called him here. If he is able to come, we face another barrier. The flights coupon the oil company gave Jeff and i to return to the Tigre are in our names. Fausto is not on the list. I will be trying to ask the oil company to change that soon. If we can't get this flight, we would have to travel by land, which took 30 days last time. Since we have the Xtreme Team's annual meeting around February 23, it appears that we won't have enough time in the community to actually make the trip worth it. Please pray God would work all this out.
Some of you Snowbirdians might be interested to know that Lorne James is now an Xtremer. As you know, Lisa Taylor, his boss, had her abduction incident a couple weeks ago and now her and her team need to relocate for safety reasons. LJ landed a job with the Xtreme Team! Including Katie Wilson (also starting training this week), Bobby Lane, and i, that makes 4 former SWO staff that have migrated to the Xtreme Team. These are the seeds of what looks to be growing into a closer relationship between the two organizations. May God be glorified.
PrayeRequests:
• That God would glorify Himself in Jeff and José's ministry to the Ashenikas.
• That God would do what He does in Fausto and my situation in trying to get the the Tigre.
• That God would train men and women of faith in this Xtreme Training period over the next 3 months. Of note, Katie especially seems to had a stressful transition into the training. Please pray all the trainees would find their security in the Lord.
• That's it.
For now, here's the list of the trainees:
