On 2006 Msn. Juan M. family joined the ministry.

La Plata, Argentina: (one hour from Buenos Aires): Msn. Isaac and Marie C. pioneered from 2006 after serving BsAs ministry for 14 years. About a year ago they bought a 130 year old crumbling house and began to remodel it to use as a center. Juan Carlos moved from Venezuela to La Plata 7 years ago after serving Venezuela ministry 8 years. He got Ph D in civil engineering at National University of La Plata and is now a professor shepherd. His influence is great. On Friday meeting I shared my testimony in Spanish. I got an impression of early Seoul pioneering ministry.

We took a ferry boat from Buenos Aires to Montevideo, Uruguay for 3 hours. We were welcomed by Msn. Jose and Rebekah P. We visited several campuses and the Center and had a delicious lunch. Msn. Jose Park family used to serve Buenos Aires ministry from 1999 for 5 years and moved to Montevideo in 2004. They sent 2 daughters, Goeun and Grace, as missionaries to Guadelaja, Mexico and Louisville Kentucky.

Please pray for these precious house church ministries in Latin America.
