Ministry Update: MISIUR (Peru)

A recent update from MISIUR in Peru highlights the many facets of their ministry among students and their families.

In Bible time with the students, MISIUR is continuing through the Heidelberg catechism, recently discussing the degrees of the humiliation of Jesus, beginning with his incarnation and culminating with his suffering on the cross and his burial.

MISIUR continues to produce daily virtual devotionals for parents, encouraging them to read and pray together as families. Recent topics covered spiritual strength and intra-family relationships. Parents have indicated that these devotionals have been helpful, providing resources for spiritual growth and discussion within their families.

MISIUR held special Bible Month celebrations, reading daily from the book of Ruth and encouraging Scripture memory among the children. For their interactive fair, they created murals about the transmission of the Bible, the Protestant Reformation, the Heidelberg Catechism, etc. Additionally, they held a thanksgiving service at their local church. Outstanding participants were given awards in recognition of their effort and dedication.

MISIUR believes that education is a tool that transforms the lives of individuals, families, and the nation. They have designed programs that supplement state academic instruction while also training the children in social skills and biblical values. These programs address the children’s emotional, intellectual, and spiritual growth and include social skills workshops, training in ethical Christian values, Bible story workshops and daily devotionals, community service opportunities, and homework counseling tutoring.
