Local dances

After the games came lunch and a dance competition. The four teams each danced a specific historic dance which tells a story. Two teams told a Biblical reconcilliation story, but in very different ways. Two others brought gifts of the harvest. One of the harvest stories featured the mayor who ended up getting drunk. The other harvest story included husband and wife fighting and reconciling. The funny part was when wives beat their husbands with bunches of herbs. Yes, domestic violence is no laughing matter, but the way they did it really was funny!

    As you have that time of rest and a moment to check e-mails from family and friends, so too is that refreshment you bring to the people of Peru.
    Rebecca, Hope and the whole team...all of us back home think of and pray for you daily.

    Love you,
