Hello all,
We have made it to Bolivia safely. After 3 plane rides, a night on the benches in Lima´s airport, and a 7 hour bus ride, we arrived at the orphanage around 1 am. For some of us that was 48 hours of total travel...straight. The weather here is alot better than at home, sunny, 75 degrees, and mountains all around. Our first morning was better than we all expected. The children here are amazing, and very cute. Peter and Delia are amazing parents to these children. We haven´t quite caught onto Peter´s sarcasm towards us yet, but we´re getting there. He is a very funny man who makes us laugh almost everytime we talk to him. Here are a few pictures for all.
Once again, thanks for all your prayers and support! We love you all and can´t wait to keep you updated in the future days.
Zach, Cam, Al, John

You studmuffins look great! I'll keep you in my prayers guys. It snowed last night. I'll ride enough for all of us, especially Stoffs. Just remember him riding at Caberfae that one time...

Hi guys! Thanks for keeping us updated with this blog. It looks beautiful there. We are thinking about you and praying for you every day. Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world. James 1:27 The Stoffer Girls
ReplyDeleteHi Guys! Here's some fun facts for the day: It's snowing here, Calvin won their first game in the new field house and we were there to witness it and it's going to be -2 next Wednesday!
ReplyDeleteLove and prayers!
