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...

Buenos Dias, Tardes, o Noche! We have arrived in Nauta Peru safe and sound! We have to come to town for internet so this is my first post of the week and my last post for a while. Words cannot explain how amazing it is here. The family we are staying with is absolutely amazing. I have learned mucho mas espanol and even taught some english. I have already had a lot of experiences since we arrived Wednesday. We got to watch the cook where we are staying kill and cook our chicken that we ate that day! I thought it was pretty awesome and let me tell you it is the best chicken I have ever...

HOOLLLAA! God calls us on our next adventure to the heart of the jungle! We will leave Wednesday, June 13th and not return to Nauta and somewhat civilization until July 20th! So if there is no blog for some time, that would be why : ) We are in for some craziness the next month or so, we will be taking a boat along the river to different villages. I know I will have some interesting stories to share when we get back and I ask you keep us in your prayers while were traveling. I just want to say a thank you to my family, friends, boyfriend and loved ones for the encouraging letters you sent...

Hello Everybody! Just wanted to let you all know that my team has arrived. We are currently in Nauta and will be leaving on wednesday by boat to go visit the jungle tribes.  As we will be in the middle of nowhere I will not have internet or any form of communication until we get back. We will get back on July 20th, so it will be a while until you are able to hear from me again. Life is a lot different down here and it´s amazing how little they have but yet they have more joy than people in America.  It´s so awesome to see God´s love already moving down here. We...

Buenos tardes con todos! (good afternoon everybody) We are safely here in Nauta Peru. We have been here for two (ish) days, and have started brainstorming as a team and planning our ministry. Its been a really strange feeling being back here after such a relatively short period of time, and I am so excited for the things that I am already seeing in our team. On our travel day we ended up sleeping in the Lima airport on the floor, on benches, pretty much anywhere we could stretch out. It was a long day, since we left Toccoa at 530 or so on Tuesday morning, and didnt go fully to bed until...

We just spoke with the team leaders and they've all arrived safely in Peru.  They are in route to their ministry site via some very long bus rides and will be settling in these next few days and getting some orientation from their host.  Expect to see some blogs rolling out in the next few days as they find internet. Thanks for all the prayers for this team! The Passport field support team
