Shake, Rattle, & Roll!

Saturday morning Peruvians were jolted out of bed by an earthquake tremor which registered 4.7 on the Richter Scale. It was a fairly long jolt, as far as tremors go, lasting several seconds. Our apartment building swayed and shook, and the window panes clattered noisily.

Flamingo Road Church is one church where you are, but I can tell you that there is one big difference between FRC in South Florida, and FRC in Peru. In South Florida, there are hurricanes, but you can prepare for a hurricane. You always know a couple of days in advance when it's coming. With an earthquake, or even a tremor, there's no warning! You can't prepare for it! You feel the earth move under your feet, you shake, rattle, and roll, and you hope and pray that you can live to tell about it. That's just one of the differences we face here at FRC-Lima.

Gosh, hate that for you guys! We are praying for you. You guys have built your church on a Rock - nothing that comes against Him will stumble!
