Mission Peru

Hello, I’m Ashton Corr. I’m in grade 11 and I attend the Glengate Alliance church.

Throughout this trip, I have noticed that joy is very prevalent. Although the Peruvians generally have far less than we do materialistically, they find joy in relationships. Throughout the living styles like the dump, they find true joy through the...

Hola mis amigos!! I want to start by thanking you all for your amazing support, encouragement, and prayers for our team! We have had an amazing trip so far and there is still a few days left. Man time flies! This has been an amazing trip of new experiences, friendships, and seeing God work in amazing ways. I know a lot of people have already...

Hey, it’s Meredith. This trip thus far has been incredible in so many ways. I have had so many different emotions and I felt God in ways I didn’t even know was possible. First of all, the food here is absolutely amazing. Hey mom, it turns out I actually like rice! The food isn’t the only thing that is amazing here in Peru; the...

Hi I’m Njeri Mwangi, and I’m from Glengate Alliance Church.

I am one of the missionaries that was given an opportunity to attend this wonderful trip. The experience has been absolutely fantastic! The people, culture, and food have been nothing more than amazing. As a team, we have recently visited lots of places such as, Amijai....

God has been teaching me a lot while down here in Peru but one of the things he has put on my heart is the feeling of true joy. I have always found myself to be a very happy person that is constantly laughing and smiling wherever I go. However, from the moment I arrived here, I immediately felt an overwhelming sense of pure joy...

We are currently four days into our expedition, obviously differences from back home are expected; although I cant say I’m missing it yet. The weather is often dry and hot, which makes every cold breeze and water break that much more enjoyable. I’ve really started to feel how our views of good and bad are merely...

My encounter so far here in Peru has been inspiring. First arriving in Peru can only be described as enchanting. The sweet sound of silence and the city lights was as if heaven was on earth. Meeting Jim and Lisa Brown and hearing about their work in Peru and how they were able to bring the Spirit of Christ into Trujillo and inspire others...

Hey it’s Emily. 

The trip thus far has been a rollercoaster of emotions.  To fit them all in this blog would be impossible, but I’ll try my best to name the most important.  Over the past few days we as a team, have sweated, burned, and loved.  Sweated with all the hard work, burned because it’s really hot,...

Hola from Jose!

These past few days have been a complete whirlwind! I am fairly poor at words, so please bear with me as I try to express what I have been going through.

Today we went to Mana. A ministry that works with the little children through afterschool programs, serving them meals and teaching them the word of God all the while...

Hey family, friends, church family and all Mission Peru supporters. My name is Adele and I am going to share a little bit about what God has been revealing and working in my life on Mission Peru 2018. So to start off I need to just say wow we have such a good good God. Our team has been blessed with some of the LORD’s amazing servants,...

Hey!

My name is Enya Xue, and I am a grade 11 on the Mission Peru Team 2018. I’m just going to tell you guys a bit about our experience having been here for just over 24 hours.

So to start off, we arrived in Lima, Peru yesterday at about 1am. We then got on a bus at 3am to drive 10 hours to Trujillo, where we are now. Personally (and...

Prep for Peru is complete (well, almost). Passports are ready, donations have been received (thanks for your generosity) and bags are packed and weighed. Tomorrow we will be making our way to Toronto and embarking on a plane headed to Lima, Peru. As with so many of these trips, plans have been made, but more importantly, room has been made in...
