I have an assignment!!!

This past week, I have been in Arequipa with the entire Extreme Team. It has been a time of encouragement and sharing what God has done this last year. This is the one time each year that we are all together. It has been great. Today, we all disperse. It has been a blessing and I count each member of this team as family.

I finally have an assignment!!! I will be going with Nadia to the Yaminahua. Once training ends, April 1, we will begin intensive language study and then hope to head to San Pablo at the beginning of June for a 2 month trip. I am so excited that there aren´t really words to describe. The language is so important. While there, we will not be speaking much, if any, Spanish at all. The women speak the dialect. So, please pray with Nadia and I that language comes quickly, so we are able to effectively disciple the women of San Pablo. Also, be praying for Katie, Linzi and Christy as they study the Spanish language and head out of trips.

Here is a picture of our team:
