Well our first full day has been a gentle introduction to Cusco! We have had a tour of the local area, seen Jenny and Roland's new flat and this evening a few of us went to the church to practice some songs and help with the preparation for their 15th birthday celebration meeting on Sunday!...It was great to hear some of their worship songs...they may not have all the fancy equipment and technology but they still manage to produce some great music...and that was only the practice...so we are all really looking forward to Sunday's celebration!!
We are all still very tired from the travelling and adjusting to the altitude, but have really gelled as a group and enjoying sharing this experience together...I personally am amazed at just how easily I have settled in and felt at home here...We are so grateful to Jenny and Roland who have made our arrival and first day here so enjoyable and looking forward to getting stuck into helping out in some of their projects....although still a bit more touristy things to do first!!!....purely as way to get used to the altitude...honest!!
So off to bed now....apologies for not having photos on today...I had some to put on but could not work out how to do it ...and everyone else has gone to bed!..the only other one to ask was 'Socks' the cat...but of course being Peruvian, she had no idea what i was on about!!
Prayer requests: Jean S has been very unwell since yesterday. Not sure if it is altitude sickness or something else. Roland is going to arrange for her to go to the clinic or for a doctor to see her today. So obvioulsy prayers for her would be appreciated, aswell as for Roger, who must be finding it difficult to see her suffering. Also Geoff and Jean are still waiting to hear from the airline regarding their lost baggage, so please pray that it is delivered soon and in one piece!!
Hasta Manana amigos
Jenny x
