Download Kep & Debbie's New Year's Greeting 2015 here.

Here's wishing you a Christ-filled Christmas and New Year.

I've attached recent photos of our family. We are thankful that Debbie is home and recovering well from her surgery. She'll have follow-up tests in February to make sure they removed all the cancer.

Andrew and Angie have their interview with the US Consulate in La Paz on January 13 and then plan to move from La Paz to Cleveland, Ohio on January 28.

Sami and Heather are well -- expecting baby #1 in February. Katie (nurse at the Cleveland Clinic) will visit us in Bolivia in February after Sami and Heather's baby is born!

Much love to you in the New Year!

Kep and Debbie

Hi from Bolivia!

I just returned from visiting our Equipping Servants (ESI) pastoral training groups in Mexico. The Lord is doing amazing things in so many lives.

Please pray for our son Andrew and his wife Angie. They are awaiting visas for Angie and their two youngest children so they can move to Cleveland, Ohio for the next 2 years. Andrew will be in Parkside Church's Missionary-In-Training program with hopes of beginning ESI Expansion in the country of Uruguay.

Thankful for your partnership in the gospel with us,

Kep and Debbie James

James Family November 2014 Update

Hi from Bolivia! Thank you for praying for us and the work here in Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador and Mexico.

I'll be in Mexico next week visiting our ESI (Equipping Servants) pastoral training groups in Chiapas (with pastor Neri), and in Oaxaca and Pachuca (with pastor Edgar). Please pray that the Lord will continue moving pastors and church leaders toward an increasing dependence on Christ -- that they study Romans over 2 years with us, it will result not only in a greater understanding of God's Word, but also a greater love for Christ and heart to reach the lost.
