Amazing Journey

The Amazing Journey 23/05/08
The Amazing Journey is something which you will all probably have heard of as it has been running for a number of years now in Ireland. It has become well known and has been a great method of taking and sharing God’s word with school children. The last time Trevor Morrow was in Ireland, at the beginning of this year, he was able to get hold of the materials needed in order to be able to bring The Amazing Journey (El Viaje Increíble) to Peru. As part of Misión Rescate, we will be involved in the beginning of the project here. Over the last few days a lot of work has been going on here at the campsite. Costumes are being made, Luz has been translating her script (she will be narrating), and each member of Misión Rescate has been learning their lines. As 11 of the team will be participating, as Aaron and Richard will be going to Ilo to share their testimony and experiences with the church there, new roles have been introduced to make the presentation even more dynamic. There will be 3 reporters, who enter at key moments to tell a part of the story; creation, Daniel and the persecution of the church. Aside from the 4 original roles of Goliath, Mary, Noah and the Egyptian princess, Trevor has decided to add a few more characters. Paul, Joseph, the Samaritan woman and Peter will all appear also. Today (Friday) a group of pastors and leaders from various churches will come to spend tonight and tomorrow until lunchtime here in Ite. We will be presenting the first Amazing Journey to this group and their families. We will also be helping to serve meals and welcoming the groups when they arrive. Once all the pastors are involved in the project, the plan is to begin by inviting groups to the centre. After this, hopefully the project will be able to travel and visit churches and eventually schools, although this may be a little more difficult to do here. We are all so excited to have been involved in a small way in the Amazing Journey here. We know that God has used and blessed the work in Ireland and we are sure that He will do the same here. Please continue to pray for this ministry as it is developed here.
