Count Down to Huanuco!

SATURDAY
A music group is being formed of different SIL and Wycliffe missionaries who are traveling from all over Peru to attend a week of conference meetings just outside Lima. We will practice all day Saturday to prepare for the coming week of services. I am so excited to be able to play the piano with this group!

NEXT WEEK
The annual SIL conference lasts from Sunday through Saturday. It's a full week with a packed schedule, morning through evening. I'm glad for the chance to continue to get to know this organization, which has been in Peru for 60 years!

LAST WEEK OF JANUARY
I'll be in Lima for one more week, continuing to take Spanish lessons and finish my orientation. At the end of January I'll be moving to Huanuco, my new home, where I'll begin to work with the Bensons. I'm grateful to have been in Lima, learning from the SIL Lima office, and exploring this city, but I really can't wait for this final step to my "permanent" home.
