Greetings from Ecuador!
Despite a wet and rainy start to our 19th Annual Easter Awa Conference, we were amazed with the strong 100 plus attendance each day! The road -- and our trucks--facilitated in transportation this year. (In fact after the conference I had to replace a broken leaf spring from slight overloading...) Praise the Lord with us for the following:- Great weather for the three days after the initial rainy start
- So many Awa who came--over 100 each day and at least 120 on Sunday (65 kids!)
- Enough food (very important for the Awa)
- Many open hearts as they took in the teaching--believers and new listeners alike

For those of you praying for Pricilla, she seems to be doing OK, but has had her ups and downs. We haven't been able to see her personally our last few trips to Ibarra, but her aunt who stayed with her just the other night said she is hanging in there. Please continue to pray that we can connect with her, and that the Lord will draw her to Himself through these trials.
Thank you very much for your prayers and support! Looking ahead, April looks to be a quieter month overall. Kimberly is busy finishing up her senior year; we will also be preparing for a visit from a group from Liberty University in May...including our son Kenny! Yay!
In HIS grip,
Kevin & Kathy
