opportunities for indigent families in shanty towns of the Northern Zone of
Lima, Peru and other areas of Peru.

particularly in the unreached jungle areas.
HOGAR BETANIA –Christian based nursing home for low

SCRIPTURE UNION - Works with street boys of Lima,
Iquitos, Kawai, Cuzco & Caraz. Provides a home, and teaches them skills. Also
works with deaf children.
ENGLISH LANGUAGE WOMEN’S PRISON MINISTRY - Weekly
visits to Women’s prison providing Bible Study and Counseling as well as helping
to provide clothing and personal hygiene items for over 60 foreign women
incarcerated in Lima and on Parole.
Throughout the year we also get the community involved in
special projects such as a Love Offering, Buckets of Love, and campaigns for
clothing donations, food, etc. in the case of natural disasters in Peru. During
the Christmas season we organize an Angel Tree decorated with over 80 angels to
be adopted by our congregation and the community to help brighten a needy
child’s Christmas with a small gift, a traditional Christmas cake and chocolate
milk.
