Tuesday Update

I am a day late with the post. I was a little car sick from the van ride around the mountains. I don´t think that I will ever complain of a bumpy road or pothole. Until you have been to Peru, you really don´t know what those things are. On Tuesday, we went to the village of Tingo and we had another great day. We are all extremely tired but all in great spirits. We held a medical clinic today and served over 150 patients. We also went into the schools and got to go into the classes we handed out pencils and candy to the children. After school, there were probably 150 - 200 children in the square. We played soccer and frisbee, blew bubbles, and made salvation bracelets with them. Their favorite thing was that we took their pictures and printed them out for them. Many of these children have never seen themselves in a pictures. Unfortunately , we finally had to start turning them away because we just couldn´t do anymore. Turning people away is the hardest thing to do for all of us, but sometimes we just had to. Many people came to know Christ today. I honestly don´t know how many, but just from the stories from everyone on the van there were many. We are going to the village of Molino Pampas tomorrow to do the same thing. Please continue to pray for us.

Thanks again for all your prayers!
