In our first of four episodes recorded down in Peru, Austin & Chris interview the other Adult Leaders about their experiences & observations just a few days into the 12-day adventure in South America. Hope you enjoy this glimpse into the early stages of a Mission Trip! And just a heads-up...we recorded this in a screened-in living room so you will hear birds & insects, kids playing in the background and the occasional motorboat going by on the river. It's a little rough at times, but it's real. Thanks for listening!

In Episode 005 we interview Fabiano Rivera - Associate Pastor of Creative Arts. Almost everybody at Great Oaks know Fabiano from his work on-stage Sunday morning and throughout the week with the Youth Bands, but they probably don't know the rest of his story. Looking forward to sharing about his childhood, his college years, his early years in ministry and his experiences in Peru. And yes...you'll understand the title of this episode once you listen!

In Episode 004, we interview two Great Oaks college students who recently traveled to Peru to serve our missionaries through a unique opportunity.
