Kevin’s Journey – Part 2
Every time our church pastor asked me to come on a mission trip, I found a reason to turn him down. Sometimes I couldn’t get off work. Sometimes I was just too busy with “other stuff”, but to his credit, he never stopped trying. For five straight years he asked me to...
Kevin’s Journey – Part 1
I grew up loosely catholic. I guess I believed in God, but He was never very important to me. When I got married, I went to church on Sundays with my wife, but only to make her happy. I didn’t pay attention to the sermons or sing any of the worship songs. I just kind...
4 Fields Training is for Everyone
I recently had the opportunity to interview a family from Oklahoma who’ve been changed through 4 Fields training. This is their story. There was a time when our family was desiring to be obedient to our call as Christ followers, but we were having a hard time doing...
100 Branches
A few years ago, e3 Partners was introduced to the Garcia’s* and a friendship quickly formed. After hearing the story of the Gospel from the e3 team, their hearts were transformed and they felt compelled to share it with others. Throughout the course of the next few...
Aaron’s Return – A Story of Obedience
Two years ago, a man named Aaron* came to know Christ, but when others from his community found out about his newfound faith, he was banished from their village. He was alone, alienated from his friends and family, but his faith remained steadfast.
Then, a few months ago…
“I hated the church.” “I left the church, and I was done with it.” This is the story of how God used the faithfulness of an introvert and the simple question, “can I pray for you?” to change those statements to…”It was amazing! We went from never going to church, to getting baptized on August 16th, to getting married in the same church on December 22nd of that same year…
It Will Never be the Same
Their clothes were colorful and bright, but their eyes looked so dim. For some time, we visited with them and we shared stories about our families and cultures. Then, an opportunity opened up for me to share my testimony, so I did. When I finished, one of the men stood up and said…
Miguel’s Dream
Miguel* awoke from a dream early one morning at his home in Honduras. He couldn’t figure out what it meant, but he had experienced it so many times now, that he remembered it vividly. “It’s just a dream,” he kept telling himself, but in his heart, he knew it was more than that…
It’s Never Too Late – A Story From Africa
One day, on a recent trip to Africa, an e3 team had the opportunity to go to Kofi’s* home to share the Gospel. Kofi is a translator, who has worked with several e3 teams in the past. His mother in law was the only one at home when the team arrived, and Kofi explained that his brother, who was against Christianity, told the rest of his family not to come and hear what the team had to say…

Five years ago, we never would have dreamed we would be so involved in missions! However, the Lord called Richard to serve in short-term missions and planted a love for South America in his heart. Richard’s background in engineering, project management, his natural organizational and relational skills were all brought into play as he serves as E3 Strategy Director for Argentina, and Paraguay. This year Richard was asked to also serve as Strategy Director for Bolivia.
In addition to leading and coordinating medical initiatives, Ann also serves as Richard’s frequent translator, allowing him insight as we meet with individuals in South America.
The Lord has blessed us richly as we continue to work part-time and will soon be able to retire from our careers in order to commit more time to the ministry. Therefore, as we ask for your support, we can assure you that 100% of donated funds will go directly into ministry towards others, and not to our living expenses.
As we travel, meet, and work with pastors and leaders in Argentina, Paraguay, and Bolivia, we are continuously impacted by the physical and spiritual needs we see. We are greatly challenged by the sacrifice we witness, on behalf of our brothers and sisters who have so little, in order to meet the needs of those who have less, so that they might minister spiritually to them.
Please, join us as we share God’s rich blessings with our hermanos y hermanas in South America. Give, as the Lord leads you in wise stewardship of His abundant provision
