There were a few questions in some of the comment sections and I am going to answer some of them here.
Yes we are in the same time zone, and of course I am going to swim in the Amazon. How many chances does one person get to do that? Thanks for the questions Chad.

I would say it is pretty similar. When we do the Jesus films people just sit and watch in amazement. It really makes me think that some are hearing the Gospel for the first time. We have seen great responses. Pastor Elvin (part of the Extreme Nazarene team) is amazing. He is Peruvian and leads most of the Jesus Films.
We only drink boiled water. We have 5 gallon jugs in our rooms, and we carry water bottles with us everywhere. Even when we brush our teeth we use the boiled water. As a side note, most of my laundry is done in the shower. A cold shower, but it feels great since yesterday it was around 95 with a heat index of 120. The kids play soccer. When they are not, they play volleyball. Did I mention that they like soccer? Thanks for the questions Wiremans.
Andy, some seem to have a knowledge, but others do not. If they do have some knowledge, for many it is intermixed with other religions.
Keep the questions coming. I will try and keep up. Some days we do not get much computer time. I set up a link to the Extreme Nazarene web site. (above my picture) All of our pictures should be on there some time today. Thanks for reading. joe

Logan and Tyler want to know what kind of clothes the kids wear? Have you seen any scary snakes? Praying for you. Be safe
ReplyDeleteIsn't it pretty dangerous to swim in the Amazon? That would be an adrenaline rush at the very least. C'mon Chad, just admit that those questions are yours. Quit passing them off as Logan's and Tyler's. Hey, I admit I want to hear about the scary snakes too. Another question: what do most of the people there do for a living in this culture? What kind of standard of living do they have? Andy.
