On this last trip we went to Santa Cruz, Bolivia to Lima, Peru to Cuzco, Peru to Machu Pichu back to Lima, Peru to Chosica, Peru back to Lima, Peru and finally, back to Santa Cruz, Bolivia. I should have been blogging more along the way, but we hardly had a minute to spare. We [...]

Busy, Busy, Busy

Sorry for the lack of posts. We have been going pretty constantly for the past two weeks. This last week during our team meeting we didn’t have Internet access either. Everything went well, but we are pretty exhausted. In fact, that’s something you can be praying about because we are feeling a little burnt out. [...]

Reality Check

So my last blog was a little, well, unrealistic. It is absolutely beautiful out in the province where we work (the pictures don’t do it justice) but…that’s not the whole story. I honestly feel like I’m on a roller coaster when I’m out there. There are moments when I love it and wouldn’t want to [...]
