Jack and Milena Meier, members of SonCoast, for years felt the call to minister to the children of Milena’s native land. In 2009, this call led them to move to the Lima area, which afforded them many opportunities to serve in the poorest areas surrounding the capital city. Jack and Milena work with two churches, El Camino in Rimac and Palabra Viva in San Juan de Lurigancho, seeking to raise money to help cover some of their expenses and to pay for some projects that their congregations need, such as house repairs, medicines, baby food and diapers, food, clothing, medical insurance, etc.
Below is a map of the area, and the specific locations where Jack and Milena minister….
Secondly, they have trained local servants and started a Celebrate Recovery program that meets each Friday night. There is much need for this ministry for adults who are afflicted with many of the same hurts, habits and hang-ups we experience here in the States.
As much as possible Jack and Milena are involved in the various projects with each church; their anniversaries, fund raisers, pastor appreciation days, etc. And just recently, on March 3rd, a new feeding center for the kids of El Sauce (San Juan de Lurigancho) was opened.
Jack teaches an English program at El Camino, to help children learn English so they may have more possibilities in life. Pray that this will increase and bless a lot of kids.
In addition, “Jackito” teaches English at a private institute to augment the support they receive through their support team, which of course includes SonCoast.
