And They're Off!

Our Bolivia team left this afternoon. One of the many great things about Bolivia is that it is only one time zone away and one hour different from home! So, as you are praying for them...it is about the same time of day.

On this year's trip our team will go deep into the jungle to dig water wells. They are going to such a remote location that they will even have to canoe several hours to get to the location! What a great adventure.

Another really big element of this trip is that the team will tour the Ruth & Naomi Transition home in Santa Cruz, Bolivia. This is a new venture that our partners, Danny and Vanessa Beams, have started. It is a safe place for orphaned or abused young women. We are getting in on the ground floor of this new ministry. It will be awesome to hear about what the group sees.

Communication will be very limited because of the team being so deep in the jungle. However, check back often. We will update with everything we know, and the team will post before and after from Santa Cruz.

Thanks for praying for this mission! Pray for health and safety, but more importantly for abundant fruit in this ministry!

  1. Can you post the names of the team members? I like to pray for them by name. Thanks!
