After a long travel day, we made it to Iquitos Peru! We met our staff, Luis & Ronald, and then loaded up the boat to head down the Amazon River. We made it to our lodge, prepped for some ministry, and are resting for the full week ahead of us! Please pray for what God will do this week, and we will update as we can!

We enjoyed a delicious dinner in our home for the week before spending some time in worship preparing our hearts for ministry this week.

The village we are doing ministry in this week is very rural, so we have to walk through the jungle to get to people's homes for food distribution.

This morning we are heading back to Bagazan for ministry via the Napo River! We traveled by plane & car to reach Peru, and now we travel by tuktuk, boat, and foot to reach Bagazan. What a beautiful image of how far God will travel to meet us with His love!

During ministry time, we have seen that the Lord is using each of us and the talents that He has given us - like leading worship, connecting with people, faith, teaching, etc. Our time, our resources, our abilities - it is all for Him!
