Lost In Lima

I forgot to mention a couple interesting things that happened the other day. Right before we were about to do one of our dramas this little kid that Patrick had been playing around with wanted to play some more and he came up and started trying to wrestle with Patrick. When Patrick told him no and tried to get him to stop he decided to kick him where it counts, so we had to wait a minute to start the drama. Matt Willoughby was also holding a small child in his lap when he felt something wet. He realized that the kid had wet himself and Matt as well. It actually looked like Matt had wet himself. That evening while doing our drama in front of some kids in a school classroom Sam slipped on the cement and fell flat on her face. The whole classroom lost it and it took a while for all of us to stop laughing while trying to finish the drama. Our last time doing the drama that night in the same school yard was a little postponed because the power had been shut off. They finally got it started and towards the end of our drama the power went out again. We froze for a second hoping it would come back on, but it didn’t so we had to finish the Mime that was set to music without any music.

Today was another good day. We went outside of Lima to a new development. There is a National Pastor and his church here that got a burden for this new development and have began the work of starting a new church in the mountains there. We were able to see the property that they have purchased do our dramas in the middle of the market there. It was awesome to hear the burden they have for this new city and the passion they have for seeing it completed. After all of us circled together and had a time of prayer we took up an offering for them and were able to give the some money to help complete one of the buildings they are in the process of building. It was a really cool moment.

Tomorrow morning we will go to church and then pack up and rest a little in the afternoon before heading to the airport for our flight home. We leave here at 12:05 a.m. on Monday morning and should be back in Baltimore around 12:30 Monday afternoon. Please pray for patience for all of us to deal with each other and for a safe trip home.

Sorry, no new pictures. The connection is really slow 2night. It has taken me 30 minutes just to get connected to put this on here.
