1/2
February, 2010
Greetings from sunny Paraguay! February
has been a particularly hot month thisyear, but weve been enjoying all the photos of the snow in the United States. This month we have learned a lot about the public transportation
system (the buses) and walking around town, as our truck is still in the shop. We also continue the legal battle concerning the title, which wedid not know had liens on it. Please keep the resolution of these issues in your prayers. Being without our own vehicle has hampered ournormal ministry schedule a bit, and we look forward to getting the mission-mobile back again. This month, we also wish a happy birthday to
Sal, a vital member of the Tap Missions team. He is practically a member of the Hagerman family now, having lived with us for the better
part of a year.On another note, we have finalized our dates for the visit to the US later this year. Well be there for all of October and N ovember, 2010. We
would love to reconnect with you to share what has been happening and the vision for continued ministry here.
A Vigilia, a Campaa, and Some KepisThis month we attended both a vigilia and a campaa. What are those? Well, a campaais what wed call a
revival. It took place on a soccer field beside a playground, in a neighborhood here in Carapegu, for three nights.
The campaa was geared toward attracting the families of the neighborhood, to
come out and hear the Word of God preached. Many children came to hear the
music, stayed for the message, and responded in the altar time. A vigilia is
technically a vigil, which is an all-night service of prayer, teaching, preaching, and
music. The vigilia was a time of refreshing and refocusing for the church family.
We also attended a community-wide Christian concert/event that included a hat
contest, called Night of the Ballcaps (Noche de Kepis). Carolines fish hat, Camilles
multicolored cowboy hat, and Kens foam pig head all brought home prizes!)

Sunday mornings are an energetic
time, as the neighborhood children
gather in our front room for Bible
stories, coloring pages, and
refreshments. The recently
donated flannelgraph set was a big
hit this month!

As always, we pray you are continually blessed, as you have blessed us and
those here we minister to. We appreciate so much your encouragement
and support as we follow Gods lead in Paraguay. You are a part of every
work we do for the Kingdom, and were thrilled to be your partners in
Gods plan for this country.
---Ken, Christie, Camille, and Caroline
Upcoming SeminarsThe past several months, we have been working with Dr. J. Gordon Henry
(www.jgordonhenryministries.org) to plan a series of Prayer Seminars for the
countries of Paraguay and Uruguay. Dr. Henry is in his 30th year of presenting
these seminars, and he travels all over the world to do so. We are honored to be
hosting him here and accompanying him to Uruguay. The theme is A Day in
Gods Courts, and the seminar deals with basic instruction on developing a
prayer life. We feel this information will be very useful to the believers in theareas well be presenting the seminars. They will take place the last two weeks of
March, and your prayers for the travel, the seminars, the attendees, the
translators, and the presenter are all very much appreciated.
Young Ladies Bible StudyWe continue learning about how Gods truth from the Word can dispel the lies the enemy tries to
tell us, and how we should live according to the truth rather than these lies. Most of these teen and
young adult girls work and study full time, so they dont have much opportunity to just hang out.
A batch of brownies and some homemade punch always gives us the chance to share Godly
fellowship and mentoring time with these young ladies after the study. This past week we all
escaped to Camille and Carolines room, where there is an air conditioner, to giggle and talk a while.
God bless you!
