Hola from Iquitos! We´ve only been here for a week, and already God is doing amazing things, and our team has become a family. With random dancing, camu camu ice cream, lots of late night mn hang outs, and eating suri (a giant grub that tastes slightly like chicken), the trip has been full of exciting adventures so far and we have had lots of time to bond and get to know each other. One of the coolest things about our group is the sense of community that we all felt right from the start, and I LOVE coming together with the other members of my group whether it be to pray, share...

Wow, what a difference there is between here and our country! Of course there are the regular differences, such as culture, traditions, physical lay of the land, etc. But man, it is HOT! Sometimes I feel as if we´re in a sauna 24/7. I wake up in sweat, shower, then start sweating again, and then go to bed in sweat. Sorry for grossing all of you out! I have to laugh. Anyways, Iquitos is a busy city and there is almost constant noise from the street, mostly from those motokars they drive. The buildings are right next to each other, a continuous line of walls block by block, but all very...

I wish I had a way to share pictures with you guys, i have made sure to be in many! My 35mm broke after my first roll of film, I am looking for another but so far the prospects look slim. I have been challenged alot lately and miss you all so much. We have been through so much as a team and so far a lot of us have been able to leave personal baggage behind. I have read my first few letters from robbie (you totally chickened out by the majority of your writing being a quote :P) Mamma´s first one (I read it the night that things changed for me, before changed, it actually ransacked my...

I LOVE IT HERE! Iquitos is so amazing and I just love riding around on the little motocar taxis. The team is bonding so well and everyone does such an amazing job of lifting each other up. I have never felt more in touch with the Holy Spirt until this trip. They said this would be life changing but I had no idea!   Between travel time and planning time we really only started our ministry just yesterday. We met with the youthgroup leaders at a church and prayed over them and planned a youth service for that night. After the morning meeting some other muscians and I went and practiced...

Hola!  Estamos en Iquitos, Peru!!  We arrived here in Iquitos after a few days of lost tickets, exploding Gatorade, dancing in airports and ministering to people along the way.  God was so faithful to bring us all here in good health and with all of our luggage.  We are staying in a beautiful building in Iquitos as we enter into prision ministry this week.  The team is already doing a great job of planning what that will look like, getting ready to preach, do dramas, and bring God’s love and kingdom.  All this umongst motorcar adventures, 3rd world...

I just received a call from the team leaders and the team has arrived safe and sound in Peru.  They are settling in for the night with their host and all is well.  The team is in good spirits and very excited for what’s to come.  They’ll be finding internet and posting blogs as soon as they can.  Thank you for your prayers!
