Hello everyone! well I havent had much time to write a blog and update everyone on my progess and my health but here it is now. I am doing very well health wise. The food is amazing compared to what i was expecting coming in. The normal meal consists of chicken, rice, bread, and coffee. We have had fish on random days, which is a nice change even though im usually not a big fan of fish. We have been sleeping in an open aired room with just a roof over us. I have my airpad that i sleep on with my mosquito net covering me. It is actually pretty comfortable once you get use to it. Even though it has all been great so far, it is all going to change as of tomorrow. Tomorrow we are taking a boat up the river to a smaller town that i cant remember the name of.. then we will be visiting 10 different villages as we work our way back down the river towards Nauta(the town we are staying in now). So this is the last time i will be able to get internet till July 20th when we get back to Nauta. They said that the villages we are going to be staying at will have limited electricity, because it costs so much to run the generators. We will be moving from village to village pretty quickly and only staying at each one around 3-5 days depending. So i will be in need of lots of prayer for my team and I´s health. Also that my team and I will have the words to say and the language barrier wont be too much of an issue. I appreciate all the prayers and support that everyone has already shown! I cant wait to get back to internet on July 20th and tell everyone all about it! See you then!
