Greetings friends! We have arrived in Lima and things are going well. The children were just great on our travel day (Tuesday, November 3rd). We awoke at 4am after three hours of sleep to load up all of our luggage and run to the airport. We crashed in bed (which felt more like sleeping on boards) about 2am the next day.

The only big surprise was that the owner of the apartment that we reserved for two months backed out on us AFTER we arrived, so we have been staying in temporary housing while we search for another apartment.

Thanks for all your prayers. Please continue to pray for us as we complete the resident visa process in our host country. We made a big splash down at the Peruvian immigration office this morning to review all of the remaining requirements. Officials kept shuffling my wife and children to low traffic areas as I travelled up and down three different floors to take care of our immigration business.

The Peruvian food is great! They put mayonaise on just about everything, including tacos, so hold the mayo has been a common request.

God bless you all! I’ll write more later.
