| Journal Entry 3 by James Reich on 3/8/2012 | |
| Yesterday was a great experience spending the day with the Prince of Peace Lutheran Church in Tunja. The people were so warm and inviting. The congregation is very diverse in age, with elders there by the numbers to support a young and vibrant group of not only contemporary worship leaders, but also young leaders in the pastor and council president. The need for this church is very evident in the building in which they occupy. A once school, then condemed, is know a house of worship. Our worship team is now in Villa De Leyda, a small town north of Tunja. The weather has been spectacular, but not as perfect as the fellowship with so many Christian Colombians. For me, mission as taken on a whole new meaning, where it is relationships that transcent beyond the swing of a hammer or a check in the mail from the western society. Mission is eye level with a young child or an aging, yet faithfilled elderly woman. This must be what Jesus meant when he asked Peter a third time if he loved him to feed his sheep. Mission relationships is the Agape love that should and must be realized. | |

| Hello from Bogota! Our team completed two wonderful days in Soacha, visiting 10 individal dwellings, painting the senior center, and most importantly fellowshiping with the most faith filled people God has blessed us with. The gifts we brought were wholeheartedly received. Thank you to everyone who provided and for your continued prayers. Tomorrow it is off to Tunja for two days. | |
