Please be praying for David as he travels this week. He is taking a team from Asheville, NC on a vision trip to a segment of the Lauricocha quechua in Huanuco.

Pray for safety in travel, especially from mudslides which are always a threat this time of year. Please also pray for direction and guidance for the team as they pray through several options this week for ministry. Pray that God will show them clearly where He desires that they minister. Jeremy & Crystal Nelson and girls have flown in from the jungle for Jeremy to accompany David on the trip and drive the 2nd truck. Crystal the girls and I are holding down the fort here. Its really great to have some company while David is gone and Crystal is a wealth of knowledge for having babies in Peru- what a great resource!
Last week we had a fun time with our friends Edmin and Maura from Panao. They along with their 5 mo old son Caleb came to visit for about 5 days. They were fun to have here and tired us out in a good way! We took them to the beach (their first time to visit the beach, and Maura's first time seeing the ocean), the zoo, taught them about the washing machine, electric stove, and garage door opener! They are so sweet! They actually came in for Edmin to dub the Jesus film into his dialect of Quechua. He was the narrator and it took 2 days of hard work to get it down! We really enjoyed having them and it also pushed us to use our spanish all week. Whew- quiet a workout!


We had a healthy report from our ultrasound- Pete is growing according to plan and everything is normal. We also had our first lamaze class last week- 1 down 6 more to go ! It was challenging to keep up with such rapid and technical spanish- but all in all I think it went well and they people were very kind and the teacher is very very qualified.


Thank you all so much for praying for us! Please let us know if we can be praying for you specifically!
