On December 27th, which is exactly a week from today, I'll be getting on a plane with ten other people, only two of whom I've met before, to fly to Lima, Peru. From Lima, we'll travel two days to get to a village in the jungle where we will teach Bible stories to the natives so that they can in turn pass them down in their own language to their children and families, as there is not a translation of the Bible in their language.
Because I won't have any kind of internet or phone access, I can't keep you all updated in real time like I did in Ireland. However, I will take plenty of pictures and keep a journal, and when I come back, I'll post both. Please pray for our trip, for safety, and for good health, and most of all, for the people to whom we'll be giving God's Word.
I want to give you all flight information and our schedule so you can pray for specific needs of the day. :-)
