Ecuador to Peru!


I am now back in Trujillo, Peru which feels again just like coming back home.  We are staying at the guest house 'Helping Hands', which is where I stayed last year.  The first teams come this week and we are all very anxious to meet them and get going on some projects, but have really enjoyed our time to train and get to know each other.
My last week in Ecuador I had the chance to attend the Ecuador vs. Argentina game which was part of the World Cup qualifications.  It was an incredible time minus the cold rain, but I would do it all over again if I could.  Sporting events here are a lot more intense than back home with people shooting off fireworks, throwing glass bottles at the players and pulling a flag over the fans that covers a quarter of the stands.  
Well I need to run now to play some futbol (soccer) with the locals, but I will write again soon.  Please continue to pray for all of us down here!
