From Pastor Ken and Lorette

We just returned from a very long day, but a very good day in Panimache. The last two afternoons we have torrential down pours. We got the bus stuck taking a detour. All sorts of fun stuff.

Today, it was a three hour long bus ride up through the mountains. I think we sang every single song that your kids know, including Christmas, musicals, Veggie Tales, and Christian. It was fun and a blessing for Jodi.

After a three mile hike down the mountain we had a service with the children. We gave them lots of gifts, candy and school supplies. We did face painting for them. We also did dramas and skits. We took them balls to play with and taught them to play dodge ball.

Overall everyone is feeling better. We have purchased all the Imodiom that is available in San Lucas. Today we needed to go to another town to get some. It has not been very serious but I believe all of us have experienced it.

We are very proud of our team. They have ministered with all of their heart. They have had fun with everyone they have met. They have blessed many, many people. Julio and Jodis children will be very sad when they leave. They have formed great friendships.

Now Claudia says...they are driving me crazy. But you all know that I am half way there already.

Nikki and all, the youth is planning on doing worship on Sunday. Thank you for the opportunity. Look forward to sharing with all of you.

Love Ken and Lorette
