Another week has past!

Sorry that our blog posts haven´t been as frequent as we would have liked. The weeks seem to fly past so quickly at times, without us knowing exactly what we´ll be up to from one day to the next, making it very difficult to let you all know what we´re up to in advance. The weeks are very changeable...but there are some things which always happen!!! -

Language classes-everyday we´re in school and are slowly learning (some more slowly than others!) It´s frustrating at times but has been a huge help to us. Please keep praying that we´ll understand more and more.

Lynne´s teaching - Lynne is helping every Tuesday and Friday in a pre-school run by the church. She´s teaching a group of four and five year olds to play jingle bells on the recorder for a Christmas concert.

Children´s home - On Wednesday afternoons Shirley goes to a children´s home just outside of Arequipa, to help for a few hours. Pray for the children who come from some terrible situations.

Discipleship class - Every Tuesday morning Simon meets up with Nelson from the church to have discipleship classes. Please pray that Nelson will grow more and more.

Shalom - Simon has been heading to a special needs school every Monday to help young people in their 20s. They´ll be finishing their studies next year. Please pray that jobs would become available for them.

Thankyou for all your prayers and thoughts. It is an amazing encouragement when we hear that people are praying for us.
