Greetings from Moho, Conima, Huancané!

¡Saludos de su Vision Team!

It has been a few days since I was last able to post, so I am going to catch you up on what has been going on down here in Peru.


As you know from our schedule we left Huancané on Wednesday, arrived in Moho then checked in at our 'hotel'. I say 'hotel' because it wasn't like any hotel that I have ever stayed in. I will explain to you more about that later. We then ate lunch(sopa de minestrone, chicarrones de trucha, y papas fritas) then headed out to Conima. There we headed up to the Mirador and prayed over the city.

Despues de esto, we head down to the square and met a local teacher and talked with him a bit. Then headed back to Moho. There we ate la cena de rotisserie chicken and more papas fritas. After we ate our food we headed back to the hotel and had a pow wow, with coffee, hot chocolate, and tea.


Thursday we woke early, the sun rises at 430am here, and headed back out to Conima with glasses, gloves, an kid packs in tow. We went into a store and spoke with the shop keeper, definately a person of peace, we gave them glasses and then asked them about the schools. The shop keeper's eyes lit up and ran to a school where her husband works. We ran after her and got to the school. At the school we spoke with the headmaster and we were able to hand out reading glasses to the professors and regalitas to the children. Then Jon, Miles, and myself went out to play with the children while John shared the gospel with the teachers. Jon and I played futból with the kids, alot harder than you might think 13,000 feet above sea level haha. We were invited to stay for lunch, arroz con hava, during lunch John continued his discussion with the headmaster and another school employee shared the gospel with them. We now have a great place of contact with that school. Despues de esto, we headed out into the street and compartir mas of the regalas to people in the street. Headed back to Moho, climbed a mountain, and ate some KFC... well no it was more indigenous flavor but had fried chicken as a segundo al sopa de patas pollos. Then headed back to hotel for another pow wow and devotional time.

Friday we woke up and then walked around Moho for a while.

After this we went out for a little side trip and ate some chicken, beef, sausage, trout, and alpaca... Yes alpaca. It was actually very tasty!

We arrived back in Huancané this afternoon. Tomorrow we are going to 2 church services. Will update with pictures tomorrow.
