Finally Home…

Well, we have had a couple of busy days. Sunday, we attended the reformed church of Ecuador and later had a bible study back at the seminary. Later on that evening, some people started to feel ill which led us to believe food poisoning  or unclean water; even Fred and Arlene feel ill. Even now…

This is what the men do during lunch

The Countdown is On!

Over the past few months, we have been richly blessed by generous giving hearts and we have raised $30,000 for Ecuador Missions! We are amazingly blessed and completely overwhelmed.   Here’s a little update A…
