First Day

Made it to the big city of Lima safe and sound with all bags in tow and in one piece. The REAPsouth guys met me at the airport along with three college kids who arrived on a flight a bit later. We got to the mission house around 1:30am - I don't remember much after that!

Thursday morning I woke up to this.. (see pic) Lima rooftops. The volunteer mission folks (that includes me) are staying on the roof of the mission house.. They built a nice space for us before we arrived-no windows or doors yet, but Lima's climate is very comfortable day and night.


We built bunkbeds on Thursday and a did few other projects to improve on the living quarters. Thursday night the Weaver's hosted an IMB welcome for new 2-year mission folks (called Journeymen) and invited us volunteers to come. We met many area missionaries and staff - all very friendly and dedicated folks.

I'll be at this location for about 2 weeks for training which begins on Monday. Then we'll head into the villages. Adiós
