Visitors for the first time…

We made it! Left at 5am and arrived at the entrance at 4pm to walk in. Once again it is interesting that someone from the community thanked the delegation for visiting—that no one has visited them before. The twist is that since they suffered a massacre in 1996 they have had Americans living with them as peace observers.

But it is different when it is with the church—a deeper relationship. A visit of brothers and sisters and for this reason they can say that this was the first visit.
