Cold in Andamarca

Wow… it is cold here. We arrived into Andamarca and were welcomed by cold temperatures and high winds. But we are glad to finally be here.

We were able to spend lots of time with the people here today. As we traveled closer to town we would pick up folks who were needing a ride into town. We gave a ride to a boy who had been traveling for two days to pick up beef from an uncle. A pair of boys who had left home at 8:30 this morning to milk the cows were returning home around 3:30 in the afternoon. We also gave a ride to a lady who was bringing an injured lamb home – it rode in the cab of the truck with us!

We spent the evening attending the church services of a group of believers here in Andamarca. We learned lots today but will certainly learn more in the morning as we help teach the children in their Sunday School. The adults will having their service tomorrow night. Please join us in praying that God gives us wisdom as we determine if we are to partner with this church in our strategy.

Thanks for your prayers as we traveled. We really had a great trip into the villages.
