23rd May

Well just to update you all I (Mark) went to Pacifico de Villa this Saturday to have a 'meeting' with the wife of the President of Pacifico (not the country as one Peruvian asked me!) in regards to talk about our plans and ask for their co-operation, help, and permission to do start a kids club in Pacifico.


Mark and Natividad, the president of Pacifico's wife.

They have said 'yes' to us, and want to help us as well. They said to us that they have wanted to do things with the children and youth but haven't been able to do it so far. Therefore we are a blessing before we have started. We hope to be a much greater blessing. We plan to start the club on the 23rd of May and do the club once a month to begin with. The model is based on Bill Wilson's ministry in New York 'Metro Ministries' www.metroministries.org, and is also used in our church in the UK. www.stthomaschurch.org.uk/stomp. The secret of the club however is that the leaders of the club visit every house of every child. Our hope is that through these relationships we can get to know the families.

Monica and Natividad.

In other news we have bought 2 cheap buggies (strollers for our non bilingual American friends, sorry!) and tied them together with string (!) so Anna can take both of the boys out to the park.

Also Anna continues to teach Daniel the finer points of Picasso, below is one of Daniel's 1st attempts.
