Goodbyes




Having to leave is never fun, but goodbyes can be fun.  Does that make any sense?  Yesterday Pastor Santiago and his family organized a farewell get-together at their country cabin.  It was a great time of fellowship and fun activities.  Here are a few pictures from the time.

Medical outreach




This past Saturday the college-age youth from Paz de Dios organized a medical brigade to a very rural town in the mountains.  It was so neat to see them take the initiative and use the skills they are learning.  Besides the physical, they also had a time of sharing the gospel and children's ministries.  It was a very profitable time in every sense.  Oh yes, and it was so much fun. They are just a humorous group.  If the slide show did not show above, you can view more pictures here.

Saturday bike trip

For the month of August, the cell groups from the church have taken a break from meeting.  As a fun activity, the men's cell group decided to take a bike trip.  To add to the adventure it was cold and raining last Saturday, but we still decided to go on the trip.  We biked up hill for 4 hours to an area called Soldados.  We swam (and warmed up) in some rustic hot-springs, and the rode home.  Well, actually we didn't ride all the way home.  We rode part way home and rode the rest of the way in the back of a pickup.  It was a cold, wet experience, but a good relationship building time too.

Church Camp

The Paz de Dios church had it's annual camp down by the beach this year.  A group of about 100 people went.  It was such a neat time of fellowship together.  Go here to see more pictures: http://picasaweb.google.com/jpillman/Manglaralto2010?feat=directlink
