Home and off again...:)

We got back last night around 12:30 am from Tentaguazu and Nukumbia. We showed a Jesus film in both villages and held a Vacation Bible School for the kids. We put on a puppet show, showed felt stories and did crafts. ...and of course the balloon animals and bubbles! Southern Bolivia is experiencing a drought right now. It´s the rainy season and many villages haven´t seen rain in weeks. This is very bad since they live off of their crops. Many of the dads are having to go to Argentina to work. Please pray it RAINS!!! :)

We are off to the Tapeite tribe, a village about 6 hours away (which means 9 :). It is south of Entre Rios, close to Paraguay and Argentina. They say it is like going to a different world. If the Bolivians say that, I have no idea what it will be like for me! There are about 50 people that live in this village. It´s very hot, sometimes gets up to 120. There are 12 of us going. We should be back Thursday or Friday!

Until then...BYE :)
love,
julia

Wow, Julia... What an amazing opportunity this is for you. I know it's tough, but I know that you are honoring the Lord in all that you are learning. I'm praying that as you learn what sacrificial love is that you will lean on His strength that He's given... I'm so excited for what He's teaching you. We love you and miss you. Keep pushing forward, remember to take it one step at a time..
