We arrived without incident in Yurimaguas. The highway over the mountain was unobstructed and the driver drove at a good speed. We however arrived to rain. It started out as sprinkles but within about 30 minutes we got downpours throughout the night. The good thing was that there wasn’t an air conditioned room so the rain at least help us stay cool.
We were able to visit Pancho and the family or at least the part that is left living here. Tarsila and her family (she now has a daughter) are living about 1 ½ hours from here. Bastiluz is now living with her uncle in Lima and has a job as a nanny. Well, kids everywhere grow up.
It feels very strange being in Yurimaguas. When we left in April our heartstrings were very attached and it was so hard to leave. Now it really doesn’t feel like we belong in so many ways. Our friendships remain intact, but it just feels totally different. God is helping us get some sort of closure to move on the the next step He has prepared for us. We really aren’t sure what He may require of us but we are ready.
Pray for us this week as we reconnect and say goodbye, too.
