PWTE Episode 005: United in Purpose

In this episode of the Praying With The Eyes podcast Pastor Jeffrey Meinz and I interview Ricardo Hildago of Pucallpa, Peru about his work among the indigenous people on the Ucayali River, a tributary of the Amazon. Ricardo equips, trains and sends people as missionaries and pastors to remote villages on the Ucayali. As you listen to this podcast you will gain greater insight into what motivates Ricardo for this work, the challenges that are ahead of him, and what mission trips like ours means to this ministry. In the opening segment of this podcast I discuss a blog I wrote entitled, United in Purpose.

This is the picture for today’s podcast. The building in the background is the church that our team helped build. Our basic tasks were to put up the siding and help pour the concrete floor.

Our trip to Peru was sponsored by Lifetree Adventures. Click on this Lifetree Adventure link to find out more about their ministry and the places to which they travel. I highly recommend using Lifetree if you are thinking about such a mission trip.
