Lima Lime

Brotherhood: (essentials for the skimmers)
Back in Pucallpa. Lima was...Lima.
Rosalinda dropped out of training, too, dag-gum.
A friend from SWO, Nate "Hansom" Branson, surprised me with a visit to Peru.
Bobby Lane is in town, too. Woot woot!!
Racheal and Anne have reached NC. Keep on truckin'!
Fausto ain't here yet because he broke his back or something

The Landside: (extras for the non-skimmers)
Dear souls who've recognized their gross futility outside of God,
As yall know, i've been in Lima since the last time you heard from me. We were able to finally return this week. While in Lima, the Lord did not let me hands be idle for long. One of the greatest ministries a brother or sister can do to assist someone who the Lord has sent out is to pay them a visit. That is exactly what Nate Branson is doing right now. He's in Peru for 3 weeks visiting Bobby and i. I didn't even know until the day he showed up. Props.
I'm currently in Pucallpa, after having to fly from Lima ('cause there was a major land side that made us turn the truck around after 12 hours driving toward Pucallpa) where we are helping out with the training.
In other news, my partner-to-be, Fausto, has recently damaged a couple of his vertebrae in a freak swimming accident and won't be in Peru for at least a couple months. What to do? What to do? Levi's coming back (so i hear)! I bet the Lord's going to work something out. He always does.
PrayeRequests:
Racheal and Anne, on the Trail.
Fausto and his (apparent) role model, myself, to heal.

The quitters, to be able to seek the Lord's Will back in the States.
