First Ever Uruguayan Led GAP Outreach

In early November, La Comunidad Cristana (a network of house churches in Montevideo) participated in our first Uruguayan led GAP. Nationals from four different house church groups came together to work together in the coastal area of Solymar. After prayerwalking the area, they were able to distribute over 1200 gospels of John. Those who participated were able to find 6 persons of peace who are now being followed up in an attempt to begin Bible studies. There were also 6 others who prayed to receive Christ during the weekend! The missionary and Uruguayan leaders who work in this area are rejoicing over all that was accomplished. We are hoping to schedule 2 more Uruguayan led GAP outreaches in 2008.
