12 gifts for the Lynch family

• Spanish! We really made great progress in our language skills this year and both Bobby & Tamitha began teaching classes without translators.
• School for the Kids! Jonathan & Jordan started attending an awesome school where they have made lots of Ecuadorian friends.
• Bibles! We were able to distribute 200 Bibles to families and children who had never owned a Bible before. (more info & video)
• Protection! His hand of protection kept us from being robbed (read about the truck scam) and prevented many other unseen problems.
• Goodies! Many people brought or sent goodies for us to give to the local churches. They LOVE these trinkets.
• Visitors! Several friends and family members visited in Ecuador. We LOVE when this happens.
• Shoeshine boys! These guys bless us more than we help them. We were thrilled to work with these kids throughout the year.
• Kids … tons of them! We can’t even count how many children attended our outreach services this year. They are such beautiful little vessels, ready & open! (photos from one event)
• Churches! We taught training classes with many indigenous churches and they eagerly learned and applied the principles.
• Students! We graduated students who are now serving on the mission field and mentored many others who are still preparing to go. (graduation photos)
• Missionary housing! While in California for Bobby to take classes at Fuller Seminary, we were welcomed into a nice, furnished apartment and found a loving community of other missionaries.
• Ministry Partners! Without everyone supporting us and praying for us, we wouldn’t be doing this. God’s faithful partners are a true gift from Heaven.
