A few weeks ago, Jen and I went to visit a family in the jungle. They anticipated our arrival and prepared a meal for us, watusa (which looks kinda like a big nutria rat) and green plantains, all of it boiled in water, cooked over an open fire. It was so kind! They offered us

Work has begun on the new lot in Puyo, where we will build our Puyo church! This is the only church we do not own. We have rented for nearly 6 years now, and finally were able to purchase a small lot in August. We are sooo excited! Although, we do not have the funds

We are sooo excited that the Lord has provided us with a lot in Puyo!!!!! For almost 6 years now, we have rented a place for the Puyo church. Land in this town is very expensive, so we never had the funds to buy (small lots are anywhere from $60,000-$150,000!!! ) But we kept looking,
