Colombia Trip
For those of you that don't know, this year's trip to Colombia left last weekend. Here is an update from Mike Patzig about the trip: The plane that Jeff and Mike were on got diverted to Atlanta, and they ended up flying the last leg to Bogota on the same flight as everyone else ! They had a great time Saturday at the Jungle (the new label for The Other Way from the Big Foot project) with about 60 Kids. Sunday: They traveled across town (1 1/2 hours) to visit a lady (Mary) who runs a drop-in school in a Squatter's town (very poor area). We are very interesting to the folks who are on the outskirts of the city, and are treated like movie stars - they reported having a great time. The only bad news: Leah was ...

Update from the Agudelos
Below is a letter I translated from the Agudelos in Colombia. I hope everyone is planning to come to the Missions Potluck tonight to have some updates and wonderful prayer time for our missionaries!

How good it is to know that God still has plans for us, it brings hope and at the same time is totally unnerving that he still brings new things to our family and although I know that everything won't ...

Diana Drake's Memories from the Colombia Trip
About 2 months ago I went on an amazing trip to Bogota, Colombia with a group from our church. We got to work with a wonderful group of missionaries from YWAM (Youth with a Mission) who live and work in the Bogota area. It was also really neat to actually work in the building that our church helped pay for through the Bigfoot Comedy night fundraiser last year. The building is used as a play center where the street kids in the YWAM program can come to have fun. We got to add some great play areas in that building, like a rope bridge, a texture wall, hammocks to climb on, a basketball court, and we fixed the rock climbing wall. Also, we got to go out and visit some of the schools and drop-in centers that YWAM helps run for the street kids. ...
