Sand, sand everywhere!

The team slept much better last night! Your prayers for mosquito intervention were upheld. Please continue them.

This is the first time a Peru team has had two Bible Fun Club sessions in a day. In the morning the team tuc-tuc-ed to the Nicaraguan church.

Tuc-Tucs

This church is located in a red zone neighborhood (don't worry, parents, we were safe). We had the privilege to interact with a group of approximately 75 children (10 & under). The coordinator, Mariana, was pleased to see our team. We were the first group to visit and serve their community. Our visit, program, and outward love was much appreciated.

Our afternoon Bible Fun Club was held at our host church. A total of 176 children (11 & under) attended. The time was filled with learning, fun and games, and priceless moments with the children of Peru. Many of these children have very little. For example, some of our students were painting the young girls' nails. The girls were so excited by the attention and the desire to be beautiful they would quickly bite or scrape the fresh coat of paint for the chance to be re-manicured.

In the evening we then gathered to hold a Youth Program for approximately 60 teenagers. The team was exceptional in opening themselves up. Bella Purcell gave a wonderful testimony and later the team broke off to have small groups.

Our days for the rest of the week will continue to be this packed. It was amazing to see the love shown by our team  and our energy was through the roof! Please pray that we continue to give our all and push ourselves to the limit even in the chaos of our packed days.
