Estamos en Cuenca! (We're in Cuenca!)




What a busy week we’ve had!  A few weeks ago, Cana developed an allergy to something.  After switching detergents and removing potentially allergenic foods, her rash continued to get worse.  The day before we left for our trip to Ecuador, her hands, feet, and face were becoming swollen.  After taking her to the doctor in Costa Rica, we decided to send her home with Trevor’s parents so that she could get medical attention.  The boys also went back to Texas with them.  Please pray for this transition time and that doctors would discover the cause(s) of Cana’s allergy.


We have had a very productive time so far in Ecuador.  We spent a day in Quito and stayed with an Ecuadorian pastor and his family in order to obtain the required documents for our visas.  It was also a good test of our Spanish, but by the grace of God, we had no problems communicating.  It was a good visit, and Quito was beautiful.  We arrived here in Cuenca on Wednesday afternoon and have spent a lot of time walking all around the city trying to familiarize ourselves with the different areas.  We’re also looking at some houses while we’re here and hoping to find the right one for our family and for our ministry.  Please pray for us during this time that God would guide and direct our decisions.  



We will return to Costa Rica next week to finish our time in language school.  Praise the Lord we will finish August 8th.
