Back from the mini-outreach

hey, we got back from the mini-outreach on Sunday. It was good. We got up early on Thursday and traveled to Nalta via bus, then we got on our boat and traveled to the property that YWAM has. We set up camp and then went to a small village not that far away, by boat. We went around to all the houses and talked to the people, they all speak spanish. In the evening we held a church service where some of the youth preached and others did drama, I was in the dramas. The next day we went to a bigger town and took the whole day to do around the same thing except we had a kids service in the afternoon. Evangalism is challenging for me, but I think i will get more courage with time. It is amazing how these people live. You either live off the jungle, like fruit and that kind of stuff or off of fish. If you get enough you can sell it if you take it to Nalta. They work hard and live simple lives. We met some very strong Christians on Saturday. We always are working with an established church. We did pretty much the same thing on Saturday to. Every night we went back to the YWAM property and slept in out tents and hammocks. On Saturday night i woke up to the sound of my neighbor throwing up. It turns out that half the team got sick. I don´t know if it was something we ate or what, a few people are still sick. Some how i dodged the bullit and i didn´t get sick. Tommorrow we find out our outreach teams. On Monday we leave for the river again, this time traveling seven hours by boat, pray for us and for the people who we will be going to. Thank you for all of you prayer support
Love you, Christopher
