December 2016
Dear Family and Friends,
The year 2016 was a busy year as always with teams and preparing and finishing up projects. We were blessed with some super great team/volunteers and all that they added to the ministry.
We had a creative arts team minister through music which made a great impact on the areas we visited.
The year also held unexpected events globally and a lot of heartache in so many areas. One of those events was an earthquake that happened here in Ecuador on the coast in April. Since then there have been 3,070 aftershocks and recently higher "shakes" on the rector scale have been happening. Continue to pray for the ones living in this area.

Praise be to God many years ago HE had a plan to give us HOPE and sent that hope to us as a baby, one night on a still, starry night in the middle of no where in a humble stable. We are so thankful for Christmas, the hope it gives us and the way it changes people to become more loving.
'17 We are excited for year '17 and all that is in the planning. We will start the year off with Global Serve Volunteers coming and then we start all over again all rested and ready to serve.
This year is our HA year, July 15-Oct.15, and we will be coming back to the States to share in churches. Our schedule still has some open spots and we would love to come and share about our work and a new project we are working on. Contact us through email by the return email or by jvfisch@gmail.com.
We are looking forward to catching up with many of you at General Assembly, you will find us at the South America booth.
We are super excited to spend some good quality family time with our loved ones.
We wish all of you a Merry Christmas as you spend time with family and friends.
May you find more HOPE, LOVE and PEACE in your hearts this year.
For His Glory,
Jon and Shirley Fischer

The heading pictures was taken at one of our newly organized church's Christmas program. One of the little boys, Kevin, wanted his sheep to be in the program. Kevin is in the striped robe.
