Buenos dias! We are currently finishing up our debrief time and heading to the airport in a few hours to fly to Lima and then back to the states. The last twenty four hours have been a sweet time of fellowship, reflection and of course, tons of fun!!

Well we are closing out our first week here in Nauta Peru. Our team has done everything from teaching english to students who hope to some day be translators, to spontaneous worship services in peoples homes. They have increased their skills in Pato pato gonzo,or as we know it the States, duck duck goose. They recently enjoyed a local culunary delight of sweaty fish which they all actually really enjoyed! As a leader it has been a blessing to watch them step up and step out of their comfort zone. The other day we did door to door ministy. I had the pleasure of going with Lauren, Kayt, and...
