Saturday April 7

Thank you everyone for your prayers and messages. All of our luggage and medicine made it to Villa Milagro Friday afternoon by the grace of God. They never let us bring 2 suitcases on the plane from Lima to Cajamarca and we did not expect the other bags to arrive until Monday or Tuesday because of the holiday weekend, but once again, God was taking care of us.

Today we worked at Huarancla sp?, about 45 minutes from Villa Milagro. We had a great first day. We saw over 140 patients and Dr. Beller pulled over 80 teeth. Everyone worked very hard and we were all tired and ready for supper when we returned back to VM 7 PM. We celebrated Matthew Wunderlich's 17th birthday with cake and ice cream a round of "Happy Birthday" in English...he had had enough Spanish for the day.

Tomorrow, we will celebrate Easter at Monte Sion with tradition Peruvian service. We hope to visit the orphanage tomorrow afternoon.

Everyone is well here and hope all are well back home. Will pass messages along to the rest of the gang. Keep them coming. Love to all. NR

Hello Mom,
Happy Easter! We miss you and are proud that you made it okay. Thank you for the Easter card - we are sorry you missed Easter with us too, but we know that you are doing much more important things for people who need you more than we do (at the moment!) Hope all is well and everyone stays safe and healthy! You are in our prayers as always.
Love,
the kids
