What a schedule


We are very busy in Lima, Peru these days. Here is our schedule this week. Sunday morning church at Flamingo Road. Sunday afternoon at the office by 3:30 for a meeting. At 5:00 in the office Sandy and I teach a Bible Study. Home by 7:30 to prepare for school Monday morning. 8:30 Monday morning our taxi driver (Raul, a wonderful Christian brother) waits for us at the corner of our calle. School is from 9 to 1. Raul picks us up in front of the school and we head for our apartmento for lunch, and homework. We have to be at the office by 6:30 for a Bible Study we teach on Monday night. Home by 9 to finish homework and study verbs. Tuesday school and home for homework. Actually had time for Sandy and I to take a walk. Wednesday school until 1 with a 3:00 meeting at the office until 6. At 7 we teach another Bible Study until 8:30. Back home around 9 for homework and more español. Thursday school again and another team meeting at the office at 2:30 until 5. Home for supper and and evening of studying. Friday back to school until 1, but right now we don't have anything else on Friday. Next week we have a team retreat and the schedule gets even more jammed. That is the life of a missionary.

We have moved into our new apartment and it is so nice to be in our own place. I will get pictures posted hopefully by this weekend. They have done some remodeling and it really is a very nice apartment overlooking a large park. It is on a quiet street. The only problem is with the one way streets in Lima you can get here you just can't get out. It is interesting finding a route to take with all of the one way streets. You have to go around the world to get anywhere.

Forgot to tell you we had our first test in español and I made muy bueno, and Sandy did bueno.
