Started out at 8:00 this a.m. Went to the market and bought food to distribute to needy families. We learned that God has truly blessed us in the US and that there are many needs around our world. Buying and negotiating the price of food in the market was really eye-opening - especially the meat market (many cow heads staring at us as well as pig snouts) Home-Town Market & Miller's seem real upscale now!!!
Our "left-behinders" just arrived, safe and sound. They seemed none the worse for wear - Martha was glad to arrive safely too.
Looking forward to anniversary celebration at church tomorrow. Three are being baptized. Everything is going well and the weather remains beautiful.
Keep us in your prayers - we miss you!
Stephanie, Kim & Melissa

God works in wonderful ways. Martha probably didn't think she would be needed to translate so soon on the trip.
Glad everyone arrived safely. We are praying that God will use this trip as He has in the past and bless each one touched...those that went from US and those in Peru.
Pray for Ann Lawrence and Family as she buries her son tomorrow. Not ever normal to bury a child. We expect them to outlive us as parents.
A beautiful Sunday morning here in Hot Springs. Glad to hear you are all together and managing the marketplace! Wondering how my mom is. Could you please mention how the art project with Sue and Ann is going? Thank you,
Catherine
Mimi, Gus and Cash were really happy to see this from you! They are excited for you to call tonight too. They had a really good time spending the night with Papaw and Gran last night. Wish I had good news about the rodeos but nobody had any luck. Well, change that, Andrew won a 4th at Shirley, but thats about it. Getting ready to head to church now. Oh, and we had a new calf born yesterday, Whiteside had it, it was a bull of course, but still really cute! Jace and Cody got to see it and that was a totally new experience for them! haha
Love from home!
Glad to hear that things are going so well.
Four Words: "LOVE YOU AUNTIE MARTHA!!!!" for staying with the boys at the Lima airport. It was reassuring to us as parents to know that God chose you to help them during that ordeal. Naomi... I Love You. Thanks to EVERYONE from us.
Keep up God's great work in Peru!!!
Great to hear from you guys. Glad to see the Lord is already using you all to do his work. Will continue to pray that everyone stays safe and healthy. Hope you all have a wonderful time.
