Wow. Picture El Paso at an elevation of 14000 feet and you have La Paz. The team finally made it to Sucre after lots of flying....lots of waiting....and lots of immigration paperwork.... and almost no sleeping. Did I mention the turbulence? Had breakfast in La Paz with Joel, Juan and Oscar from FH. Drank great tea that counter acts the effects of the altitude.
We get to rest for a while this morning and then comes orientation, Bible training and an over view of the work here. Hopefully lunch is planned in there somewhere. :)
Everyone is excited and having fun. Thanks to all of you back home who are praying....and thanks for sending us.

Hey! (from Gabrielle Bigger)
ReplyDeleteI got to get on the computer again so i thought i would give u an update as to what we’ve been doing. The bathroom is going well. My back is killing me from my digging but everyone’s is.
The people that go to the school are so nice and helpful and the first day made us all presents. it was nice. The de worming business is actually the coolest part because we get to walk around Horno Ckasa and see how the people really live and it’s very enlightening. It’s very sad, but we talk to them and its cool. The children that we’ve been doing a lot of things with are very, very sweet and are so adorable and I want to take them all home! but of course, we cant.
Today we are playing a basketball game, going to church Sunday school, painting (big whoop), and something else I cant remember. There are dogs everywhere.
They are feeding us like crazy. I will never go hungry, we eat about 5 delicious meals a day! Zack’s happy about that, as are we all. Bolivian food is yummy! say hey to the chickens for me!
Love, G
