"It's the exhilarating nature of stepping out in faith and watching God provide that has been so encouraging. Our lives are vastly different to what they used to be when we were in England.

"I am working with the PEPE project in South America. Its essence is to motivate the local church to reach out to pre-school children within the poor communities. Equipment is always very basic. Their classrooms are usually the local church (one room) and, as I witnessed they can be filled with not only children, but chickens, stray dogs, fleas, poisonous spiders and, on one occasion, even wandering sheep! I have been involved with several training sessions with the PEPE teachers, and time and time again I have been struck by the dedication of the teachers. One teacher travelled four hours in the back of a truck and then walked for two hours in the rain in order to get to the training
