Serving in Paraguay with MK Care and Education

Finally there is Rain!

Muddy roads

One week, this place looked like a desert, and the next week it looked like a swamp! This area of Paraguay is very flat with clay soil so the water just sits and doesn’t drain off. Some of our families got stuck in the mud trying to get back to our MK school after the Christmas break. We ended up cancelling school for one day since the students couldn’t make it out for classes. You could call it a “mud day” instead of a “snow day.”

The tribal people are especially thankful for the coming of the rains so that they can plant their gardens and crops. This can be a harsh land for the tribal people who depend on hunting and gathering for their survival. Pray that the tribal people will respond to the truth of the Gospel as it is presented to them. Pray for continued progress with teaching, discipleship, and ongoing translations of the Scriptures in the various tribal works. We consider it a privilege to be part of the team to see the 17 tribal groups here in Paraguay reached with the Gospel.
