I Love This Church

Hi all,

I could not help but chuckle today when I was reminded of a cute moment after we visited a church in Chile that was Pastored by an American couple.

After church when I asked my girls how they thought the kids church service was, my youngest Isabella said “Dad, it was awesome, I absolutely loved it”.  I was quite taken back and wondered, “what are they doing that we can implement in our church?”

I questioned Izzy for about 15 minutes until she finally said, “The reason I loved this church so much was because the teacher spoke english to me!”

You have to love your kids.  Be blessed and have a great day.

Church Planting Boot Camp

Where are the Perez’s this month?  Pittsburgh, PA.  As many know, we work in the area of church planting and this month I am blessed to not only get some additional training but also add value to other U.S. church planters.  I am currently at a weeklong event training, preparing, and equipping other church planters with the practical resources to go and plant healthy churches.

In my group, I have three church plants I am working with from MN, KN, and TN and man it is awesome!!  We have approximately 50 church planters here and God is doing some awesome things in our midst.  1 Year from now, we plan to return to the mission field where we will be training Pastors all across the country in the area of church planting and please pray with us that God will prepare our ministers hearts so that we can plant as many churches as is possible our next term.

To infinity and beyond…………………….

Life Is Sometimes Soooo Hard!

My heart is burdened this afternoon.  There are many friends and family members in my life right now who are going through some pretty rough situations.  Two of the families are in Chile and it is hard to be here and not be able to comfort them during these really hard times in their lives. 

I feel like God has blessed me beyond measure so much in my immediate family and I so want that for loved ones in my life.  Sin is running rampant and the enemy has deceived many.  Today I am asking God to have mercy on those who are now hurting and crying out to Him. 

So many people are hurting and they try to keep it to themselves.  Why do we do this?  We need transparency so that our brothers and sisters in Christ can help us along life’s toughest times.  Father help us get rid of the pride and humble ourselves, because then and only then will they receive the healing they so desperately need in their marriages and families.

If you are hurting today, don’t be afraid to let it show and ask for help!  God CAN!
