Dear Friends,
In three days, Anita and I will be heading back to Peru; so we should be there by the time you get this letter. We thank all of the churches, pastors and individuals that treated us so well while home on this very short furlough. We were not able to complete with all of the invitations and for that we are very sorry. Anita and I have realized that four months is not enough time for furlough. If we did not make it to your church please pardon us and know that we will plan to have longer furloughs in the future and have enough time to report to all of our supporting churches.
During these months, Anita had both hands operated on and we planned a wedding for our daughter, Leah. Needless to say the time has gone by very quickly. We thank you for your prayers during these hectic times.
We are looking forward to a mission group of twelve from Berea Baptist Church in Hiddenite, North Caroline (Pastor Charles Cook) to come down in July. This group will be working on a building project for us in Huanuco. Anita and I hope to have other groups in the near future. How about your church? We would love for you to come and share in the amazing work God is doing in Peru. The works are going great and we have some plans for new ministries in the near future. Remember us in your prayers. Until next month.
Serving Jesus in Peru,
Sheridan and Anita Stanton
