Sunday in Pisco
        Today we went to the church of Padre Jose! The church's members welcomed us with open and happy arms and were very appreciative of all the work that our Zion members have put into their home. Right after church, we made our way to a restaurant, where we had a fun time salsa dancing, watching different kinds of cultural dances and listening to the different musicians. Later in the day, we were thanked by the Peruvian people with hugs and kisses and we were presented with a hand carved box with figurines inside from the Andes. This sparked many feelings among everyone in the room, tears of joy and tears of pure appreciation.
        It was a tiring and exciting day and we look forward to the next couple of days when we will be fulfilling the Peruvian people's hopes and wishes.
       They are all so thankful for everyone in the Zion congregation and consider us all one family under God.
