Caleb & Brittany Hendon

8 years ago we took our first river trip as a family of four. 15 hour trip took 18 and we didn't even get to sit in our assigned seats, just a long metal bench seat in the back of the boat. 🙃😅

We visited a small village near Iquitos. Look how little the girls were! 🥰

We're so ready 🙏♥️

The Hendons are ready to go back to Peru. Will you pray for them? 🙏

🇵🇪 Pray for housing — that God would open the right door in Arequipa before they even arrive.
🇵🇪 Pray for wisdom as they navigate schooling for their children — whether that looks like homeschooling, virtual school, or a Peruvian school.
🇵🇪 Pray for open doors to find land or a building for their Oral Bible Training Center in Arequipa.

Every prayer moves them closer to the people who need them. 💛
Will you take a moment and pray for the Hendon family today?

🇵🇪❤️

In the Amazon region of Peru, stories are everything.

For generations, indigenous communities have passed down knowledge through spoken word. So when the Hendons began Bible trainings in 2018, something shifted. Instead of reading from a printed page, they told the story of Scripture the way these communities have always learned— out loud.

Then an older man named Urusha spoke up. He had followed Jesus for nearly 40 years, helped translate the Bible into the Kandozi language, and even led others to faith. But hearing the gospel told as a story in his heart language, he looked up and said, "Now I understand."

In cultures like these, stories travel. When someone truly understands the story of Jesus, they carry it home— to their families and their villages. This is how the gospel is being advanced in the Amazon.

Could Peru be where God is calling you? 🌿🇵🇪
Whether for a short-term trip, an internship, or a longer assignment — there is a place for you alongside the Hendons in Peru. Your yes could change impact the unreached in Peru for generations → lacworldmissions.org/join

Help us get there 🙏

The Hendons are preparing to move to Arequipa — a city of 1.8 million people in southern Peru that has not had a missionary in nearly 20 years. Their vision is to establish an Oral Bible Training Center there, raising up a new generation of pastors and church leaders who will take the gospel further than they could ever go on their own.

Pray for the people of the Amazon basin and Arequipa are waiting to hear the life-changing message of Jesus in their heart language. 💛

Peru needs your prayers. 🌎🙏
🇵🇪 Pray for political peace — Peru has just elected a new president, but the margin was slim and she is the ninth president in the last ten years. Stability matters for the mission.
🇵🇪 Pray for the unreached in Arequipa. Though the Quichua peoples are officially Roman Catholic, they blend this with their ancient religions. Old gods are given the names of Catholic saints. Mountain spirits, sacrificed animals, and syncretism have replaced the true Gospel for generations. They have religion — but they have never encountered the resurrected Jesus.

Apachetas - Sacred altars and spiritual offerings to Pachamama (mother earth) and the apus (mountain gods)

We saw them in multiple places while in Arequipa, but this one place we visited was covered by them and I was overwhelmed.

Even sitting here typing I'm overwhelmed by the task at hand: to reach a people that are so lost, but have no idea.

Catholicism is the claimed religion, but it is actually a mix of indigenous beliefs and many only attend on special occasions. Very few have a true understanding of who Jesus is and what He did for them.

We have been told that the region is a "graveyard for ministry" due to the spiritual warfare.

We need your finances to get there, but more than ever we need your prayers. 🙏
