I’m still trying to get my ducks in a row after a 10-day trip to Argentina; turns out I have some pretty rebellious ducks. But I’ll get things together.

Herald of Truth allowed me to accept an invitation to return to speak at the Caballito church of Christ in Buenos Aires. They had asked me to come in 2011, but it just wasn’t possible at that time. The church in Córdoba had also expressed interest in my coming, so I was able to fulfill two requests in one.

I spent the first weekend in Córdoba, doing some lessons on the book of Ecclesiastes. The Córdoba church is in a rebuilding mode; Hugo Fuente, the missionary there, has been working with the congregation for about a year and a half. He and his wife Judith are really doing a good job. They had several visitors, including a few that were there for the first time.

I also spoke at two of the three small group studies that they have in Córdoba. They stream the Wednesday study on the Internet, allowing some of their members who can’t attend to participate via the Internet.

Last weekend, I was in Buenos Aires, at the Caballito church, doing some lessons on “Too much religion!” (that really doesn’t translate well; in Spanish, it basically means “stop all the religion!,” based on Isaiah 1:11-18); it was an examination of the difference between religiosity and faith. It seemed to go over well.

I find myself doing more and more “mentoring” work with missionaries; am I getting that old? I’m glad to be able to share the things that I’ve learned from others and lived myself. I guess that’s what we’re all supposed to do, right?
