An arch at the cathedral.
They are finally on their way. A short term missionary team from my home church in Arlington, TX is coming to Arequipa, Peru. It is really hard to believe that they managed to fundraise in 3 months enough money to come and spend a week here working construction and spending time with the kids at the two orphanages.
Throughout the week in the mornings we will be heading out to a neighborhood called Via Ecológica to construct the walls of the church. We will be working with sillar, which is a common volcanic, white rock mined here in the Andes. In the evenings we will be heading out to one of the two Casas Hogares. We'll be at the younger kids' orphanage twice and then at the older kids' twice. I know that with this team being here, my last week here is going to be a blast!
