a church there on the Pikunii Reservation. Every
summer, they hold a wilderness camp for the children

This precious family work to plant new churches and
disciple and train brothers to do the same among a
people group called the Quechuan, located in a remote
canyon community in southern Peru. Their main need
is to prepare pastors and lay leaders, as well as faithful
youth and women of mature faith. They stress this
because many so-called “reached” people groups no
longer have a witness due to lack of indigenous spiritual
leadership. Brad has been working on setting up a radio
tower in order to get the Gospel out over the airwaves.
