The photos below are just a glimpse of the varied ministry I'm involved in. Since my last letter, I've been asked to speak several times a week, in person and online, spent many hours encouraging and mentoring young pastors and missionaries, as well as attending dozens of meetings. Your prayer covering is vital.

Once again I had the privilege of attending the graduation of the missions students at Timothy's Abode. The three graduates are all Ecuadorian but from three ethnicities: Hispanic from the mountain city of Riobamba, and Shuar and Achuar from the Amazon jungle. The building is progressing and the directors, Ron and Esther Marcotte, are pushing hard to move in before the next class in February 2022. If you feel a nudge to contribute to the building fund, click on the link above.

Pablo Celi, the pastor of the church in Loja that Rick and I planted 30 years ago, invited me to preach the following day since the two cities are only forty minutes apart. What a joy to see how the church has grown even during the pandemic and continues to plant churches in other cities.
