These followers of Jesus are heroes to us and we feel privileged each year to witness their humble service in God&#8217;s kingdom. Pastor Manuel is a Paul-like evangelist who spreads the gospel among the indigenous people of Ecuador. I am excited that Susan gets to join us as we visit this beautiful part of the world next week. We would really appreciate your prayers.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Far away, on a different continent, another group of indigenous people suffer greatly in some different mountains.
