The Lord has blessed us with so many wonderful friends!
Greetings from South America! As
always transition time is a time that is bittersweet (la dulce y el limon) We left Atlanta last night at around midnight(14th) after a busy 12 days back in US visiting as many as we could and repacking. The overnight flight was as fun as you can imagine--NOT. We kinda slept in every position we could think of trying to get a few winks in before we arrived here in Lima. The smell of Delta's eggs were almost more than I could bare at 4a.m. The trip was smooth and customs was a breeze compared to what we have dealt with in the past, so we are thankful. The Lord sent one of his angels to help with the 6 heavy suitcases which totally saved my back--thank you Lord for your provisions. We are now at the guest house in Lima awaiting our trip tomorrow into Pucallpa. The luggage is on its way now by truck which will take almost 24 hours. The plane trip is only 1 hour mas o menos. Starting our paperwork was not too successful today as we are now on Latino schedules (muy tranquilo). I will make another trip back in a couple of weeks to try again.
School starts on Monday and we are excited about getting settled in our temporary house until they finish renovating our house which is steps away from the school, yeah! We have met several families already who we will be working with in Pucallpa; I am excited to hear all that is going on for the Kingdom in our jungle town. My prayer is that Victoria and I will be a part of the growth of new believers in the area and find a church to become involved in. My heart's desire is to begin a Precept study with a group of Peruvian women in Spanish, so please pray to that end.
For all of you that know I am not "up with the times", I just wanted to let you know that I now have a MP3 player thanks to Stephanie and my 43rd birthday. Hey Jenn, "I'm in the now. (ha, ha)
Thank you so much for your continued prayers. We are here thanks to your support and love. Please know we are humbled by all that the Lord has done and is doing and will do. Blessings!

We are following your journey with anticipation and joy for the advancement of the Kingdom through your lives, but we also follow with a tinge of loneliness as we miss seeing you and Victoria. What a sweet impact you have made in our lives! A hug for your both...Until your journeys pass together again.
David and Glynis
