Missions Month - Bolivia

With one outreach completed this past weekend, a Trinitario church is getting ready for another one.

The church in one village held a four-day evangelistic outreach, concluding on Easter Sunday, wrote Joe and Elna Snyder, missionaries to the Trinitario people of Bolivia.

Soon a Danish church group will visit for additional outreaches.

“Twenty-five Danish Christian teenagers with their chaperons will also visit [the village] for four days at the end of March,” Joe and Elna wrote. “The public school has offered them time for a Christian presentation as well as a time for sports. The group also will hold open air meetings.”

They will also have meetings with a church in another village.

“They will live in very primitive conditions with only one outhouse and an adjoining enclosed shower area,” the Snyders wrote.

Please pray that they make an impact for Christ among the Trinitarios, and are inspired to be involved in planting churches among tribal people.

After their visit, Joe and Elna will be able to get back to several projects they are working on to help the Trinitario believers.

“With the help of Bruce and Jan Johnson and Jason Naldrett the Trinitario Bible overview is now ready,” the Snyders wrote. Now they hope to get that out to “as many of the 78 Trinitario villages as we can visit.”

Pray for the couple as they “travel to the scattered and very isolated villages via primitive means of transportation.”

Also, two Trinitario/Spanish song books, one consisting mostly of choruses and the other of mainly hymns, are in the final stages of formatting, almost ready for printing. Pray that these final steps are completed without delays.

    I’ve been enjoying your missions posts. It’s amazing how those blue tarps find their way around the world, and can be used for just about anything (like a roof).

    Blessings,
