For the past 8 months Rev. David Quisbert and the La Paz Bible Presbyterian Church (La Paz, Bolivia) has been building a new sanctuary to replace the old one crushed by heavy snows several years ago. With assistance from PMU and churches of the Great Lakes Presbytery, the congregation has sacrificed and labored to ready the new sanctuary for its official dedication on December 2. Dr. Pine, Dr. Kevin Backus (Grand Island, NY), Rev. Tim Miessler (Cincinnati, OH), and Elder Philip Resnick (Cincinnati, OH) traveled to La Paz to participate in the celebration. The attached photo journal of the construction progress will bless your heart as you view it! Please pray for the congregation as they continue on in their building project all the way to completion, as the Lord wills.
