Today, after spending the night in Ambato, we traveled around Mount Chimborazo through hail and snow and took pictures of the rare vencuna. We visited with the people of Tamboloma and Yatzaputzan. We found them to be very active churches, improving life for their communities. Following those meetings, we rode the bus to Guamote where we met with another indigenous community development group. For the next two days we will be traveling with them to see their projects and church sites.
Our luggage is now in Ecuador, but still not with us. We are hopeful for a change of clothing by tomorrow evening!
Hopefully more news tomorrow night.

when I looked at the pictures of these precious children especially into the eyes of the close up this song came to me...Precious Jewels...
ReplyDeleteWhen He cometh, when He cometh,
To make up His jewels,
All His jewels, precious jewels,
His loved and His own.
Refrain:
Like the stars of the morning,
His bright crown adorning,
They shall shine in their beauty,
Bright gems for His crown.
He will gather, He will gather
The gems for His kingdom,
All the pure ones, all the bright ones,
His loved and His own.
Little children, little children,
Who love their Redeemer,
Are the jewels, precious jewels,
His loved and His own.
Thank you so much for what you are doing....for each one of God's precious jewels!
