GCU Team Arrives Lima

Chip — Fri, 17 Jun 2011 05:57:00 +0000

The team from Grand Canyon University arrived very late, last night. The real time from campus to hotel was 30.5 hours! A few hearty souls walked to Starbucks at 7 AM. The wiser ones had breakfast at 9 Today, we explore Lima and have orientation and then overnight bus to Trujillo, where the work continues.

How Do You Get To Trujillo?

Chip — Wed, 13 Apr 2011 22:59:32 +0000

This is the type of bus we will take to and from Trujillo!

I was tempted. I was really tempted to put up a picture of the most broken down rattle-trap bus I could find, just for a good laugh. The truth is that our team will travel on a VIP luxury bus. The bus has seats like those of a first class airplane (3 across instead of 4 across), that recline and have foot rests. The bus is air conditioned and has a clean bathroom on board. A stewardess will serve a meal and there are movies. Our students will get to see 750 kilometers (450 miles) of Peruvian coastline. As missionary Ken Bowie told me on our first trip north, as long as we keep the the ocean on the left and the Andes on the right, we will get to Trujillo just fine.

Update (March 19)

We are getting to the point where we know who the team will be. Five Lamca’s will go in mid May and stay for the summer. We will be joined in late May by a summer missionary from the Church at Arrowhead. In mid June, a final family member (Bryan) will fly to Peru with 7 or 8 Grand Canyon University students. They will be working in an are of great need and will take on basic sanitation projects that will dovetail with spiritual needs. Keep us in your prayers.

Peruvian Christians Work Alongside of NorthAmerican Short-term Volunteers

Some funds have come in and we expect to buy 3 of our 4 tickets in the coming week. If you have not given and would like to, I assure you that we need the help!

I wrote last week that this was a big faith issue and it is. Many will go to the middle east this summer for ministry, and they should! Many will go to Japan and provide relief, and they should. When I went to Peru in 2000, I told people in my “Tarzan Spanish” that my vision was for Peru to not just be a Mission Field, but a Mission Fountain. I believe that God will be doing great things in Peru this summer and through Peruvians. Thank you in advance, for being a part of what happens!

Global Outreach @ Grand Canyon University

Chip — Thu, 14 Oct 2010 02:14:53 +0000

Matthew, Katie and Thomas Lamca were on hand to help explain missions in Peru. They are anxious to go "home" this summer and work in Trujillo.

Jake shared the needs of global ministries in all parts of the earth. He invited the students to commit to pray about going and before the band could reach the stage to start playing, hundreds of students were filling the front.

We had a great night at Grand Canyon University, as student expressed interest in going to Peru

and other parts of the world this summer. We expect to have two teams of twenty going in June.

If you are interested in going, please contact us, immediately.
