Drinking from the Fire Hose

This is an expression that both Scotty and our colleague and friend, Greg, used to describe our interactions with the Hursts this weekend. Greg and Faith Hurst (and their 3 little girls) are co-laborers in the church-planting ministry we are joining in La Paz. The plant has been a desire of theirs for many years and in the past year or so has really begun to take shape as they've put a core team together, consisting of 5 or 6 Bolivian families, the Hursts, and us. It's been over a year since we have seen them, so our reunion on Saturday was sweet and full of exciting news. Greg is a visionary and has worked hard for many months to compile detailed information, which he shared with us over the course of a day. We were a bit mentally overloaded by that night, but even more excited to have concrete details to pray and dream about in the next few months. We adore this family and feel so, so thankful to be working with them and, as it turns out, living next door to them in the beautiful community of Mallasilla. We've decided to share a Llama. Watch out, they spit!
