Dear Friends,

July has certainly been a whirlwind month for Anita and me. We traveled to Tucson, Arizona for four days to attend our son, Joshua's, wedding. After arriving back in Peru we meet the BFM Missionary Adventures Team on the 17th in Lima. The team came to work on the building of our mission in the town of Huariaca. They worked hard and did a great job. A lot of ground was cleared and leveled; windows installed, and electrical installations were completed. The team expressed its admiration of the many young people and men of our church here in Huanuco that also turned out to help in the construction. It was a joint effort and turned out to be a great success.

Brother Randy Jones is leading another Missionary Adventure team to France and then on to Kenya, Africa in 2004. As a missionary working on the field I highly recommend the BFM Missionary Adventures trips. These teams come with a desire to serve the Lord and work hard in some type of mission project. If anyone has ever thought about working in some type of mission endeavor, contact Brother Randy Jones and he will orientate you as to when and how you can participate. Again, Anita and I thank the team for the great work they accomplished and the Christ like manner in which they worked.

Please be in prayer for our mission work in Chasqui, we have lost the worker there and the saints of that mission are very discouraged. Pray that the Lord will raise up another worker that will be faithful and love those folks.

The work in Huaral is now putting up the block walls. Hopefully they will be able to pour the columns this month of August and then by September have it under roof.

Thanks to all of you who pray for us and give sacrificially for the advancement of the Lord's work here in Peru. I know your rewards will be great in Heaven one day. Write us when you can or come and visit. We love you all. Until next month.

Serving Jesus in Peru,

Sheridan and Anita Stanton
