"Words
can't express how God changed my life while spending
time among the people and church in 
Peru.
I went into the trip expecting God to do amazing things,
but had no idea that He would surprise me and change
my life for eternity. I was so moved by the love and
joy that filled the people we spent time with. I left
with an inexpressable joy in my heart filled only
by Christ. In some ways I feel like I received more
blessing than being a blessing to the church. I am
so thankful for the opportunity that was give to me
to be a part of a team serving in Lima. God is so
good, and my life is forever changed!" (Michelle

The big impact that this trip has had on my life is
that I know that I need to be telling people about
Jesus.There are no words to describe what I felt while
we were witnessing to people there. It was just pure,
eternal joy. Joy that will never go away, it is the
joy that I crave more of. As we talked about it we
said that they just live in a different culture than
we do here, and that’s why it’s so easy to witness.
True, but the same Spirit changes hearts in Peru as
in Nebraska. I am just challenged to talk to people
about whether or not they are going to heaven. It
is just that simple. Overall, 127 people accepted
Christ on our trip. We all felt the joy of knowing
that we were part of an eternal difference. Are we
compelled by Christ like the Peruvians are? Do we
understand what the seriousness of death to a non-believer?
I’m afraid in the US we have become too comfortable
and we don’t want to offend anyone by telling them
what we believe.
