Peru trip

Here is the story of our missions trip to Peru. Sorry it took so long (a month and a half) to write. I was having trouble getting the pictures onto the blog. Aqui esta la cuenta de nuestro viaje misionero. Lo siento que yo tome tanto tiempo (un mes y media) para escribirlo. Yo estaba teniendo dificultad poniendo las fotos en el blog.

Day of Departure -Thursday


Thursday we left for Peru. We met at the church around 10 in the morning, but we didn't arrive in Peru until around midnight or so. We were so excited! En jueves, salimos por Peru. Nos reunimos a la iglesia a las 10 en la manana, mas o menos, pero no llegamos a Peru hasta aproximadamente medianoche. !Estabamos muy emocionado! I got sick on the plane. Fun... Yo estaba enferma en el avion. Divertido...

Day 1 -Friday

Friday... our first day in Peru. We started out by working on the church building in Surco. I cleaned all of the bathrooms. Yippie! El viernes, nuestro primer dia en Peru. Comenzaron con trabajando en la iglesia en Surco. Yo limpie todos los banos. !Yupi!
This is Surco. Este es Surco.
Jose, Doug, Bobby, and Joseph went to a ladies house to replace her roof. It was a good day of helping out. Jose, Doug, Bobby, y Joseph fueron a una casa de una senora de la iglesia para componer su techo. Estaba un buen dia de ayudando.

That night we made chocotejas, a chocolate that the church is selling to raise money so they can take a missions trip to Ayacucho. Esa noche, hicimos chocotejas, una chocolate que la iglesia esta vendiendo para levantar fondos para hacer un viaje misionero a Ayacucho.

Day 2 -Saturday


On Saturday, we went out on the streets and sold chocotejas en the morning. That was an adventure! In the afternoon, we went to Villa Maria to do an outreach. We did worship, dramas, testimonies, and teachings for kids and adults. There was a team there from Oregon also. They did their ministries, too. It was definitely a group effort! That night, we set up the church back in Surco for the service the next morning. En sabado, en la manana, ibamos en las calles y vendimos chocotejas. !Que una aventura! En la tarde, ibamos a Villa Maria para hacer un alcance. Hicimos muchos ministerios; musica, mimos, testimonios, y estudios para ninos y adultos. Habia un grupo de Oregon alla tambien. !Definitamente estaba un efuerzo del grupo! Esa noche, arreglamos la iglesia en Surco para el servicio la proxima manana.
Me and Luz. Luz y yo
