Hidalgo County

Friday was a full day. It started off with my weekly zoom call to my Bolivian ladies. We all served together back in the 80’s and 90’s.

Then our monthly Member Care call with our other Avant member care providers.

We had lunch with Bob and Shirley. True veteran missionaries. They served for years with GMU in Argentina and then Bolivia. I mean they were at the tip of South America in Usuiah, Argentina. They then worked many years as an instructor at Rio Grande Bible Institute as a language teacher. And then many years as a prof at the historical seminary of SETECA in Guatemala City.

We were quite sad when they moved back to the states as Glenn and I just moved down to Guatemala in 2006. But they have not stopped serving and working. Bob and Shirley continue to serve and instruct with on line classes.

They serve in their local church here in the valley. And we try to meet up frequently. While we were living in Guatemala, the Kasper’s made frequent work trips and we would often take them to lake Atitlan for an extended weekend of shopping and relaxing. Fun.

The evening was filled with a large gathering of those Avant folks that live and serve here on campus at Rio Grande Bible College. Roger shared and then the ladies gathered for a sweet time of fellowship.Lue lisää
