Tonight will be our graduation ceremony here at Calvary Chapel Bible College Peru. We have four students who will be walking the aisle. Carlitos is from Colombia, Karina is from Honduras, Belen is from Ecuador and Candy is from the United States. My congratulations go out to all four of these graduates. They have each studied hard to earn 80 credits and graduate with an Associates of Theology degree. God bless you guys as you take the next step with the Lord.

Prayers and Praises
My family and I pray that this update finds each of you doing well. We’ve been in Peru now since August 11th and the time is just flying by so quickly. This semester will end in just three weeks. That is so hard to believe, but true. It will end with a graduation ceremony on December 4th. At that time all of the students will be heading home and then we’ll start getting the campus ready for the Spring Semester that will begin in February 3rd.
However, we will not have too much downtime during the break. We have a team of about forty coming in just after Christmas to help us do some pretty extensive repairs and upgrades around the campus. It seems like everything needs a tweak here or there. We also have a new family coming to help us out. They will be moving over from Ecuador the first week of January. We are really looking forward to having them. They are originally from California and have six boys, three of which are approximately Dane and Brandon’s age. We are looking forward to the fellowship.
I’ve just finished putting together the schedule for next semester. We'll be teaching Genesis, Revelation, Systematic Theology, Inductive Bible Study and Acts. Not sure which ones I'll be teaching yet, but most likely Genesis and Revelation. I also look forward to teaching a class in the Spanish program as well. I absolutely love teaching!
Continue to keep us in your prayers. Pray that the Lord will keep our support strong. We see so many missionaries that are discouraged about that. However, we are so blessed to have such faithful supporters. Again, thank you.
Also, pray that we will be able to sell our minivan. Right now a family in Andrews, Texas has it and is trying to sell it for us. It is really taking a toll on us financially. If you guys know anyone that is looking for one, please let me know.
Also, pray for Jannett. She has physically had a rough time since our arrival. She started out with a cold, then the flu and now she is having dizzy spells. I took her to the doctor this morning and they ran a few tests and we are supposed to find out tomorrow what the results are. Pray that the Lord will heal her body.
We would also like to thank the Lord for many answered prayers. We were all able to get our Religious Workers Visas. Now we do not have to leave the country every ninety days. I was also able to get my Peruvian drivers license. Many of you helped me pray about that. The boys and I have successfully completed our third month of language classes. We were also able to get some of our things brought down last week with a friend that flew in from Orlando, Florida.
In conclusion, we just want to thank all of you for the love and support that you continue to give us. You guys are the best and we love and appreciate all of you.
