There were over 800 people total on the trip but we were divided up into teams of about 30. I was on team 16 and we were the best team!! :)
This is my team performing the drama at one ministry site. I am the "mime" on the far right, sitting with my hands up. The drama told the story of the "Toymaker and Son" which was about God sending Jesus for our sins to mend this broken world. This scene is the creation scene. The spanish words and music were played on the soundbox in the corner of the photo.
This is at the top of the mountain above the hotel that we stayed at in Peru-- me with some of my best friends that I made on the trip.
This is a picture of me with the lady that I got to tell about Jesus, her daughter, her baby, and my friend Amy, who helped me to tell her about Him in Spanish. This was one of the best parts of the trip- I had never actually told someone about Jesus before!!
Here I am handing out hot chocolate to some of the kids. We partnered with the local church to get this all set up.
Me and my friend Stephanie in our mime costumes.
Here I am washing hair with my leader and friend Cindy.
This is a lady in a market chopping up chicken into parts. The chicken feet are in the left corner on the white tray.
A mother holds her baby in a "manta," a type of sling, on her back.
Some Peruvian children follow our bus.
The children drink hot chocolate.
There were stray dogs EVERYWHERE in Lima!
Me and an alpaca. :)
During this trip, God impacted my life, and I would encourage everyone to go on this trip next year!! The website that tells more about it is www.briomag.com/missions
I made so many great friends and I am so thankful that I got the chance to go on this trip.

Wow, it was an awesome trip, wasn't it?! :-D I was sad not to meet you in-person. But, oh well, it's all good. :-) God did so many amazing things in Peru and I trust that He will continue to do so into the future. Blessings!
