The strike continues. There is much division in Yurimaguas. A leftist political group and the Indigenous can't seem to come to an agreement in ending the strike. Truthfully, we don't know if there is even dialog going on between them and the government. Today the market was allowed to open for a few hours for people to buy food then everything closed again. Looks like they are in for the long haul.
The threat now is that they are not replenishing the gasoline supply to the generators of the cities which will mean sometime between now and Monday we will be in blackout conditions unless the strike is resolved. We are readying flashlights and batteries and water.
Please pray for this to be over. It's only inconvenient for us but this is a major issue for our indigenous brothers. Pray for the government to finally listen and act!
Psa 35:10 Every bone in my body will shout: "No one is like the LORD!" You protect the helpless from those in power; you save the poor and needy from those who hurt them.
