* On August 17th I shared at the weekly meeting of Christian Surfers Peru. We spent some time in the first half of Proverbs 6.
* On September 2nd we started our discipleship program Deep Faith on Wednesday nights—this time hosted by Alejandro at the Club Empresarial and led by me.
* On September 8th we started the book of 1st Samuel in the devotional time of our weekly Prayer Meeting on Tuesday nights.
* On September 10th I started teaching a special Bible Study for Surfers on Thursday nights that we have called—The Search. The purpose of this meeting is to evangelize and disciple surfers into the Body of Christ though a deeper study of God’s Word. This study is a join venture of Calvary Chapel Miraflores, Christian Surfers of Peru and Eternal Wave Peru Surf School. Father, we ask in Jesus’ name that You would grant repentance to life to every soul that steps into the costal waters of Peru and beyond..!
