What a month !!  Six children adopted from the orphanage, a money gift to buy a 28 seat bus and a small pick up, and the orphanage is below 40 children.  God has richly blessed us.  We now have a capacity to accept 20 more children. The key to this ministry is placing children with wonderful families. By the way, we still have a number of beautiful kids that would like to have parents.

We have two new long term volunteers that came in September. Janie Helm and Emily Buescher. Janie has volunteered for 3 months until December and  Emily has volunteered for one year.  They have set up a web site where you can follow their work here at the orphanage. Janie’s web site is www.janiehelm.blogspot.com.  Emily is setting up a link from Janie.  Also, the Hubbards,who are adopting three of our children in September, have set up a web site at www.losnino.blogspot.com.

A brief update of the water project in Alto Salverry is that we are waiting for an election which will be held shortly. The tough guys are running against the nice guys. The old saying” Nice guys always lose” I hope is wrong.

Also this month we had are most unique gift. A chicken farm donated 175 tons of chicken manure to the orphanage. I was very fortunate in shoveling some of it personally. Sorry, we only except chicken manure in Peru.

I want to thank everyone for their generous support for the ministry here in Peru.  May God bless all  you very richly.
