Concepcion

We arrived in Concepción yesterday and were greeted by Graeme Peters at the Airport. A short ride to their home, just across the road from the city's Football ground where a major game is being played at the moment. Every now and again there's a roar as someone shoots for goal or a penalty is awarded.

We spent a long time talking with Graeme and Jane about the ministry here and have gained a far better idea of the various challenges and issues they face.
Today we went to their church. They have three morning services, a 10am English speaking service for the St John's congregation, held fortnightly (not this week), an 11am service in Spanish for the St John's congregation and a 12:15pm Service for the San Juan congregation. The two churches operate independently in a building owned by the St John's congregation, but Graeme is trying to encourage them to merge into a single church.
