I want to thank everyone for their prayers while Anna and I have been here.
Please keep us in them for a while longer. We will be leaving for Lima in the morning and taking a tour before catching a flight late tomorrow night for Houston. 
We will arrive back in Phoenix early Monday morning.
In some ways it will be so good to be home. We miss Ashley and Derek a lot and the dogs of course. We are sad however that we are leaving our brothers and sisters in Christ from the barrio.
The last day there was bitter sweet. The pictures on this page represents everything that I continue to return to Peru for. It's always good to go and work hard and accomplish something that can the people there can see. 
The bottom line to what we do on this mission trip is develop long lasting relationships that mean something to these people.
We had an awesome day...starting with putting up some new walls for one of the women who teach kids classes in her home. The walls are made of thatch but they will be good enough to hold classes and keep the sun and wind off the children.
This afternoon....we did nothing but play with the kids. We mixed in a little men vs. women volleyball.
The men won of course! The end of the day meant long good byes. We have many great memories of all the people in Villa Hermosa-Milagros. And we are bringing back greetings to many who have already been here for a mission trip. 
For those that are waiting for some additional word...Anna got up this morning and joined us in the barrio all day. She said she was fine....but I think she willed herself to be there. She is doing so much better tonight. She is just fine! I don´t think she would have missed today for anything. Annita.....the mother of the girl I baptized last year......really took a liking to Anna and gave her a special gift today.
Yesterday, she gave Anna a pair of earings and some perfume from Avon. They have so little and are so generous! Annita´s family really loves Anna and hope that I bring the kids next year.
This will be the last post until we get back to Phoenix. We love you all very much!
