Somewhere in the archives of EMM, there is a video taken with a camcorder in October of 1990 of the first baptism of the Peruvian Mennonite Church. There might also be some slides or even some fuzzy photos taken with a film camera of that highly significant day. Somehow, by the grace of God, a church was born on October 12, 1990! Steve and Beth Gibbs were fortunate enough, along with other EMM missionaries and a good number of Peruvians, to be witnesses of all that took place that day. While many things have changed in the 35 years that have passed since then, the Jesus movement that began that day has continued.
