In 12 more days 8 of us will begin the journey to Bolivia. For some of us it's a return trip with excitement to re-connect with familiar faces, sights, foods and yes even smells. For others this is a new adventure with hopes and dreams and maybe even fears. For all it will be 16 days of another culture, language and stretching of ourselves.
Am I pumped? Absolutely yes! Not only do I get to return to a country where I lived for a year but I get the opportunity of leading a team of 7 other fantastic people. I am excited to see the plans God has for us, the ways in which He will use us and grow us and the ways we will gel together as humans. We will be working directly with our church's partner the Casa de la Amistad during those 2 weeks. The first week with the teachers in a supportive workshop setting as well as in their classrooms preparing for the new school year. The second week we will be at the Casa as the program begins a new year, helping and supporting however we can.
We want to invite you to join us as we together begin this next phase of our ongoing partnership with Bolivia. Your prayers and support are crucial to this ministry. You are as important in that role as we are going and for that we are thankful.
Stay tuned and we will try our best to keep you up to date as we journey along.
