Greetings from Cleveland!
Attached is our December Update. We hope the reflection on growing in Christ will be an encouragement to you.
Thank you for praying with us—that the Lord would continue to deepen pastors and church leaders in Christ as they commit themselves to studying and living His Word by His help.

Kep & Debbie October 2025 Update
Hello from Colombia, as we wrap up several weeks of meetings with our ESI (Equipping Servants International) country leaders.
We started with an amazing week in Fortaleza with the ESI leaders from all over Brazil. Then 2 weeks in Uruguay and Bolivia meeting with our ESI groups and the church we planted in La Paz. After that a week meeting the southern South America ESI leaders, and today we finished up meeting with the northern South America and Central America ESI country leaders. We are encouraged to see how God is working in many lives and local churches -- helping pastors and church leaders honor Christ by being true to His Scriptures.
Tomorrow, Debbie flies back to Cleveland while I head on to Rwanda for a week of meetings with ESI pastors in Kigali. We will give you a more complete report later, but for now -- thank you for praying! God is answering your prayers, and we are truly encouraged,
Kep and Debbie
