Hi everybody!! These past few days have been wonderful! On Wednesday, we split up into teams and had a scavenger hunt...my team won, of course! So I basically got in a lil sightseeing as well. Here are some of my adventures...1. Taxi drivers in Peru are CRAZY! There are hardly any traffic lights so everybody just honks the horn! 2. I got to slide down the pole at the firestation...ok I know not that big of an adventure but it was fun and Ill prob never do it again. 3. I got to see the catacombs at La Iglesia San Francisco. 4. Youll never believe this one...I drank Jugo de Rana. Translation...FROG JUICE!! I actually got to see them kill the frog, skin it, boil it, blend it, and strain the bones...and he added a QUAIL EGG for good measure! HA HA 5. I ate anticucho, bull heart! Ok so I know that wasnt a big deal either but eating new things is a HUGE step for me!!
That night we went to camp for orientation. It was a great 2 days just learning about God and what He wants to do in the villages! We did an indepth study of the Tabernacle and how it applies to our lives. It was pretty much a huge worship service. It was great just getting to know the other students that were going to the villages as well. I met my team members, Michael Hall and Jerry Jenke. They have both been to our village that we are going to. They are so excited about what the Lord is doing and going to do in Bella Union!
Now, we are at our hotel in Ica. Tomorrow, we will go to church with a pastor who has been diligently working in our village, Bella Union, for about 2 years. We took him, his wife, and 8 yr old son to dinner at Rokys tonight. They had the best chicken!! We depart for Bella Union right after church. Please pray for our safety as we continue to travel. Please pray that the people would be receptive to the Word. Please pray for our team unity and spiritual preparedness also!!
Love yall,
B

Beth, From one that visited many foreign lands while in the A F, don't ask what is in it. Just eat it or drink it. Remember the good ones and don't make the same mistake twice. Every now and then just stop and take in all that has been happening. Praying for you. Bro Marion Wilhite
