2009 Peru Mission Trip

 Trujillo, Peru April 11-18, 2009 

Volunteers from Grace and Reformed University Fellowship at W&L co-labored with Peru Mission and the Holy Spirit to continue God's call to in establish Christian communities that are molded, shaped, and propelled by the Gospel. Through pastoral ministry, relief work, leadership training, university ministry, parish day-schools, and economic development, the Lord is building strong, vibrant parish churches that are not only becoming self-sustaining and self-propagating, but also actively involved in bringing God's justice, mercy, and peace to the world around them.

 Contact John Pearson (jpearson@ruf.org (H) 540-463-6730) for more details.
