The rainy season is almost upon Peru, leaving an urgent window of just a few weeks to send Brother William Matthews to finish Phase 2 of the "Building Bridges Peru" project before the storms trap our missionaries. Last year, your prayers and generosity sent him to build a critical bridge over the hazardous ditches surrounding the church compound. Because of you, the local community and our missionaries finally had a safe way to enter and leave the grounds, but today, the mission is only half finished and $8,728.00 is urgently needed to keep the community connected.
Time is officially running out. To secure the church and safeguard the local community, Brother Matthews must return to Peru immediately. His mission is to dig drainage ditches for a half-mile down the main road leading up to the church, tying them directly into the compound's existing system.
The essential combination of these new ditches, drainage systems, and bridges is what makes it possible for missionary David Hodges and his team to continue to reach the surrounding areas. Without them, ministry stops when the weather turns.
If these ditches are not dug within the next few weeks, the incoming torrential rains will cause waters to rise waist-high. The main road will become completely impassable, trapping the townspeople and entirely cutting off our missionaries from the people they serve.
We must solve this issue once and for all before the heavy storms arrive. Would you please pray and ask the Lord what He would have you send in to help us cross the finish line? Every dollar brings us closer to keeping this church open, safe, and accessible.
