Can I go back to Peru now? How about NOW?

All I can think about is going back to the Amazon villages, to help them more. We have a trip set up for April 17th and we are working hard to get everything together.

We need to get corn for the village of Santa Maria de Fatima to plant time there this month. For each home in the village, that amounts to $30,000 dollars for the village. For all the things we are doing for the villages the clock is always running. We are organizing volunteers we need to help us, w also coordinating with the villages, working to design hydro electric, meeting with charity groups, creating a web page, negotiating with companies in Peru for better prices, completing the application processes with the government of Peru, and dozens of other things. Most of this is being handled by Kizzy and David who also have to work at their day jobs and being good fathers and husbands.

But once you get these people in your heart, no matter how much you do, you want to do more. The only way you can make the people around you understand is for them to see it and be there. There are worse things in this world than to have an immense desire to help people. So we'll keep working.

Won't you come with us?
