The capital city of Lima has always been a very fruitful source of postal students. In 2018 we were happy to baptize three new members, including the third married couple in the ecclesia. Four members receive post-baptismal classes from N. America.
A memorial service is held every second week. CBMA workers and others visit frequently to give public lectures and encourage the members and students.
