222!

God truly blessed us on Easter weekend! We had great turnouts on Friday night at Hotel Las Palmeras, and on Saturday night at Hotel Las Palmeras, and especially on Sunday morning at the cinema, plus we had a whole lot of pre-schoolers and children on Sunday morning, too, and our total combined attendance in Lima for all three services was 222! That is the biggest crowd we've ever had, and we praise God for it!

We all know that most people leave Lima during Holy Week to go to the beach or to go camping, since it's the last weekend of the summer. We all saw how empty the city was - like a ghost town! Only about 10% of the combis were even running. All of this easily could have led to an extremely low turnout on Easter weekend, but our God is a great God, and He convinced a whole lot of people to attend Flamingo Road Church instead of going to the beach or going camping.

I want to say a special thanks to all of the volunteers who made Easter weekend a huge success. Rocio, Ofelia, Flavio, and Luis are always faithful as ushers and greeters. Mariana is great with the children and pre-schoolers. Emerson is great - everywhere! Alfredo and Eva are the tech experts that make it all look great. Ivan does a fantastic job with the audio. The singers - Dorcas, Norma, Sylvia, Gianina, and David - were all awesome in getting the crowd energized and in a great worship mood. And Josue and the musicians - Angel, Caleb, Gerald, and Kevin - were 5 stars! Flamingo Road Church would not be growing the way that it is in Lima without our fantastic team of volunteers every week. We couldn't do it without you!
