God is so good...

We have already experienced God's provisions as we have made the journey here to Cabana. Our trip could not have been any easier - well a helicopter would help here. It was a very different experience arriving in a large minivan instead of on the combi. We have made arrangements for the same driver to bring us back to Nazca on Tuesday. God has basically given us an extra day here in Cabana because of the time that we arrived yesterday.
All of the team did great during the bus ride. Our sons have been incredible. We did not hear a single complaint from them since we left Ocala. Once we arrived here in Cabana we realized early on that God is going to use the boys to build bridges into the lives of the people here. The boys have already begun to make friendships with other boys, too. Last night they sat at a table with a Peruvian boy and spoke to him through one of our interpreters. It was awesome to see them interact!
Today we will meet with our friend Luisa who was baptized in 2009. We will meet this evening with Irene who agreed to let us come to her restaurant and have a Bible study. Please pray for us as we seek to communicate with them about what it means to have a relationship with Jesus.
Cabana has a new mayor. We are excited to meet with him tomorrow. We have already developed a relationship with his family. Romer is his son and he was one of the first boys that we met when we arrived in 2008.
Thanks for your encouragement and more importantly your prayers. Please pray that God puts us in the paths of the people that he wants us to meet this week.
If you see our families - hug on them and let them know that their boys miss them!

Hi Adam & Aaron,

This is grandma calling from Ocala. You know how bad I am doing this sort of stuff. Had to come to come to your house in order to say. Is sounds like from Kevin's message that all is going well, that you are renewing some past friendships and making new ones that's wonderful. Glad you are all doing well and that God is working thru you to show the people of that village that he truly is alive. I pray for all of you each night and look forward to seeing you soon.

Love,
Mom & Grandma

P.S. Look forward to seeing you on the big screen tomorrow at church.
