Hello beautiful people!

Short update! 

Long one to come tomorrow!

Tomorrow is a well deserved day off.  The group is splitting up to explore Buenos Aires one last time.  We just got back from picking up our laundry and indulging in a treat at our favorite ice cream spot.  My favorite is the frambuesa (raspberry) con bano de chocolate (bath of chocolate).  Yep.  As terrible as it sounds.

Things are good.  It has been an interesting time here.  It has been a strong focus of spiritual warfare, bringing the presence of God, and intercession.  This can be a challenge when you long to see tangibly the work of God.  But we discussed today how success is not determined in numbers...but in obedience.  And to that, we can say that we are successful.  We adored working with the church here.  Man, talk about tangibly feeling the presence of the Holy Spirit.  

This felt almost like a testing time.  Many things arose to test our patience.  Many things threatened our unity.  Many things were cause for complaints.  And yet...none prevailed.  What an amazing team.

Miss my mommy and daddy.  But seriously, who doesn't?

More later.
