and its off to Puno we go

that right tomorrow morning, 6am en punto we head off to Puno stopping for some breakfast in Moquegua. Its been a while since i had a 5:30 start so looking forward to that! The journey to Puno has got the better of some irish people over the years with a few emergency stops and sick bags so again cant wait. It will be my first time to Puno and for some of the team as well, while Gorge and Vanessa are returning to their home country and seeing family they havn´t seen in a while . We´ll be in Puno for the next 10 days so this is the last blog post for a while, unless i find a sneeky 30 mins to find an internetcafe! Our first days will be with the Alliance church in Puno, working with the youth people and getting to know the believers there. We will be presenting the Amazing Journey (the story of the Bible from Genesis to Christ´s return including presentations by some special people from the Bible), its the first time that the Amazing Journey has travelled to Puno, so its an exciting opportunity. We will then travel to the campo (pretty sure it means more remote country areas) and visit some of the Baptist Churches with Pastor Osvaldo who looks after the Baptist churches across Puno.

Prayer Points for Puno
- For the Amazing Journey, that those that hear it would understand, enjoy it and want to more about the story of the bible
- For me as i prepared my part as the samaritan women, its a lot of spanish to learn and remember
- For the churches we will work with, that we would encourage and help in their work
- That we would enjoy the expereince of working in a very different context, Puno is more traditional and remote and the cold weather makes life tougher, so pray we would learn from the people we met and be faithful in our testimony
- For Pastor Osvaldo as he ministers to the various churches, for safety as he travels and for wisdom and heavenly strength as he ministers to so many church situations and families.

Thanks again for your prayers
