Vilma Abbot - Word of Life Peru

Dear Friends,

Greetings from Costa Rica. It is a blessing to share with your once again, of course I wish it could be in person, but for now the Lord knows when. I am sorry because my last letter was in December. I did not get the chance before to share with you about my ministry. I hope this letter finds you well and under God’s hand of blessing.

It has been a wonderful year, full of changes. We have a new director in Word of Life Costa Rica. It has been a great change for me, Eddy Vidaechea was the director for about 20 years, so after prayer God confirm my decision and my desire to continue in Word of Life. We still arrange a lot of things, knowing the director and his family Steve, Marissol, Jessica, Amanda and Melissa Theis. They are a wonderful family; they are God’s provision for our ministry. They love the Lord; they love the country, so we know that God will do amazing things. For now they are learning a new language, a new culture, pray for them and for us too.

So for that I have been out of my normal ministry rhythm and now is like to begin again. Please pray for this, sometimes there are things that happen that we don’t understand. But we have been studying a verse that says, “Be not weary in well doing for in due season we shall reap if we faint not…” sometimes we want to faint and as we studied, the tiredness is real, is reasonable, but also is removable. We can get tired, but not faint, we should not lose our strength, valor and enthusiasm. We need to believe in God’s justice, in that a pleasant life in front of him brings rest, we need to believe in a life of service, in God’s promises, in His miracles and a separated life of holiness.

Pray for new girls for discipling, and for Rebecca, who is at the Bible Institute in Argentina, I praise God for what He is doing in her life and for her growth and personal decisions made. She does not have finances for her next year, but we trust that if God wants her to take her third year classes He will provide.

PRAYER REQUESTS:

Please continue to pray for my youngest brother and for his wife’s salvation.

For our director and his wife, Steve and Marissol Theis, for wisdom as they guide the ministry.

For a fellow missionary’s health, her name is Laura Aguilar.

To be able to realize when I am getting tired and keep my eyes where they belong.

Financial support.

Thank you once again for your attention to this, for your prayers, for your support and your offerings. Thank you for being a part of my life through these things.

With Love,

By God’s grace,

Vilma Abbott
