The Plan

The Vida Joven (teen ministry) leadership team is meeting here at my place at noon to continue planning our kick-off event with the youth here in Tarija. It's to be for December 3rd. I'll be one of the speakers and there'll be drama, music, video, etc. Please be praying that all the details come together...there is no doubt that the saying "manana, manana" - basically everything can be put off until tomorrow - could be multiplied down here in the South :)

This leadership team involves all the Baptist churches here in the city but there's one that seems to be struggling a bit and the girl who is to be part of the team working with teens hasn't actually attended any of the meetings yet so we're working on some commitment issues and I'm trying to learn what truly is going on.

It's already mid November which is just nuts! I need to get the December kick-off talk ready and then 2 workshops for the annual jovenes campamento in early January done. I'll be starting that this afternoon. I'm also getting back into Horizons again; that needs to be a priority for the next few months. I need a new brain :) Terry Smith and two others from the CBM home office will be arriving early December for team meetings as well as partnership meetings with the Bolivian Baptist Union (UBB). I must say that it'll be great to see them as well the Guthries and Nachos (and their new little baby :)).

Basically the next month will be crazy busy but exciting so please be praying regarding the kick-off event, the Vida Joven leadership team - commitment, bringing everyone together, etc., cbm's team & ubb meetings and the workshops I'm putting together.

In other words...keep praying! :)

Blessings!
