Welcome to the blog!

This new blog will chronicle an upcoming short-term mission trip to Peru.  The blog is intended to allow our family, friends, and supporters to follow along. The trip will occur July 9 to July 18.  We will be serving Christ by visiting orphans who live at Josephine House, a shelter for children in crisis located near Cusco.  Some of the team will also be visiting a remote village called Santo Tomas where our church is partnering with a national church. 

I am Jason Lenentine and will be one of the authors of the blog.  Prior to departure I will try to post some background information about the trip.  Two posts have already been completed and are availalble to read so check them out.  Check out the links as well as the current weather in Cusco.

While on the field we will try to populate the blog with updates.  This will be subject to availability of the internet.  We will try our best but there is no guarantee.  Those staying in Cusco should have connectivity, but it is doubtful we will be able to do on-the-fly updates from Santo Tomas.

We really appreciate those who have supported the team through financial giving or prayer.  John wrote in 3rd John to encourage a church to send off a missionary team "in a manner worthy of God."  You have done the same for us and we have been blessed by generosity and faithfulness.  It will be our joy to share this experience with you in this small way.
