I recieve ministry letters and update from Agape Puppet ministries based in
Georgia USA. They have ministered using puppet to preach the gospel in many countries around the world. This week they are in Peru, South America ministering
the gospel to children. Their email letter are so uplifting and encouraging, so I decided to forward their latest letter which I recreived tonight regarding their ministry on June 15, 2009 in Peru.

Dearest Friends,
THE MARKET
We are having such incredible opportunities to tell
people about Jesus. Today we did an open air show
in a large market. Across from the puppet stage, they had
dead chickens ready to buy for dinner. An appropriate
number of flies were also present. The booths were small
and close together and everywhere there were
children. You could buy just about anything you
wanted, including clothing. More than one hundred
and fifty people gathered to listen to stories
about Jesus and watch the puppets sing songs about Him.
Many responded to the Gospel and prayed to receive Christ.
Men, women, children and teenagers were present. Most of
these people had never been to a church and would
never plan on attending one. After we finished our
friends handed out Christian literature with contact
information so they could find a good church to attend.
Please pray for the people who heard the Gospel today
to remember what they heard and trust in Jesus
Christ.
THE APPLE
We never know when we plan to do a program what exactly
God will do. Always I am amazed as I watch children respond
to the good news about Jesus. So many children prayed
today, calling on Jesus to save them, just like he
saved Peter. They were amazed at Jesus walking on water,
but I was more amazed at the way they listened. We were
at a Christian school, but almost all of the children
were from non-Christian homes. The director was
so excited to see the way the children prayed.
She desperately wants these children to know
Jesus as their Savior. Please pray for the
children to grow strong in their new faith.
For me, one of the sweetest things that
happened today was when a little girl
gave me her apple. It was part of
her lunch, but she wanted me to have it.
Elisabeth had asked Jesus to
be her Savior and wanted to thank me. Please
remember to pray for her.
