Dear Family & Friends,

April/May 2010

Terremoto is Spanish for earthquake.  We believe that is where the English word "terror" comes from.  After living in Chile for only seven months we experienced a major earthquake at 3:30 a.m. on Feb. 27.  The floors in our home actually rolled as we tried to assemble everyone in the living room thanking God for His protection.  We realized God’s hand of protection is always secure and we can trust His strength and power.

May, 2010

Ministry opportunities have increased over the past four months.  John has been preaching once a month and is now teaching a Bible institute class each week.  As you can imagine, these two assignments alone take an amazing amount of prep time.  He also meets with a tutor each week and watches TV and listens to the radio to tune his ear to hearing Spanish.  Laura is teaching Jr. High Bible and tutoring a Korean student each morning.  She has also been sub teaching in the afternoons for teachers who have returned to the States for various reasons.  Not all of her students are believers, so she is taking the opps to share Chrust.

Please pray with us for our house in the US to sell and that we would find a house in the neighborhood that is reasonable and close to our church plant site.

God is so good to sustain those He has created.

We thank you for your continued prayers and support.

Love the Niemeyer Family
