In La Paz, Bolivia the public was invited to Seminars for a Family Revolution, with themes of The War and the Covenant of Love; Trained Parents – Victorious Children; The End of Rebellion in the Children.
The Pro-Family Committee in the city of Cochabamba united many churches and advertised on billboards and on secular TV and Radio the Family Revolution events.
Over 9,000 people attended the two evening Family Revolution event. It was estimated that over We witnessed the reconciliation of many parents with their children, as fathers realized that the key to eliminating rebellion was for them to repent and ask their children’s forgiveness for wounds they had created, and to learn how to impart the blessing.
Again, the Covenant Marriage Conference in Cochabamba was advertised in much secular media. This poster promotes the theme The War and the Covenant of Love.
Just under 400 couples attended the Covenant Marriage conference we held in Cochabamba, Bolivia. Here we can see many couples looking each other in the eyes for the first time in many years, and asking each other’s forgiveness.
People from every segment of society attended the Covenant Marriage Conference in Cochabamba including native Aimara and Quechua indigenous couples.
Experience a little of the worship time we experienced in Bolivia.
El Alto is a city just above La Paz, on the high plane of Bolivia (around 13,000 feet in altitude). We conducted a powerful meeting on blessing for the people of that city.
After Bolivia, Jan flew home to prepare for Johnny and Shalon’s wedding on the 30th, and I went on to Lima Peru to minister in a conference, Salvemos a la Familia, hosted by Pastors Guillermo and Milagros Aguauyo, pictured here.
As always, I had a wonderful time of fellowship connecting with the the team of international speakers invited to minister at the family conference in Lima, Peru. Included were Doug & Lisa Stringer, Jimmy & Aida Cornejo, Rey & Mildred Matos, Lee Grady, Samuel & Raquel Justo, Sixto and Helen Poras, Desmond and Sandy Frey, Alex and Diana Acuna, Yuri Mantilla, Leo Godzich, and Joaquin & Ivette Molina.
I conducted an Empowering Relationships Experience primarily for South American pastors at the beginning of the Lima conference. In this photo we see the power of God demonstrated in restoration of relationship in the family.
Pictured here is the FFI ministry team, who facilitated 10 small groups in the Empowering Relationships Experience in Lima.
The Salvemos a la Familia Conference was completely full to capacity with people from all over South America who have taken an interest in transforming families and blessing generations in their local communities.
Check out this link of Alex Acuna drum solo. One of the fun times in the conference was the worship music and percussion solos by Alex Acuna, who was the former drummer of the rock group “Santana.” Alex is originally from Peru and has a beautiful testimony of how he gave his life to Jesus Christ.
Another great time provided by Pastor Guillermo and Milagros Aguayo and members of their church was a visit for the international speaker team to “Mamacona,” a Peruvian horse breeding ranch owned by members of the church. Lunch and a beautiful show with horses and Peruvian dancers was provided for us there.
On Sunday morning after the conference in Lima, I ministered at a large gathering of an open air church. This video is a small sample of the worship we experienced with some of the local Quechua Indian instruments and worship style.
At the Sunday church service in Lima, I invited families to take a few moments to gather together in a circle and repent if they had emotionally wounded each other and for the parents to look each of their children in the eyes and bless them.
