Buenos días, acabamos de llegar a La Paz y gracias a Dios en el aeropuerto de La Paz pasamos las aduanas sin problemas, ninguna maleta fué revisada y todas las donaciones y regalos pasaron sin ningún problema. Javier Zubieta, Rolando y Emerson integrantes de la iglesia Dios es Amor y colaboradores de SIM, nos recibieron en el aeropuerto, nos ayudaron con la transportación y nos llevaron al hospedaje de la casa misionera que queda localizada en la ciudad de La Paz, en Obrajes para ser más éxactos. Luego de acomodar nuestras maletas, salimos a la ciudad un par de horas con Javier para organizar unos detalles logísticos y luego en la tarde visitamos su iglesia, específicamente el ministerio de jóvenes.

Todo el grupo quedo impactado por la dinámica de la reunión que tuvieron los jóvenes, vimos mucho entusiasmo, cordialidad, amistad, fraternidad y compromiso con Dios por parte de todos estos jóvenes. Hubo muchas alabanzas, prédica y todo esto en un ambiente muy dinámico y ameno. Luego de un día que empezó con nuestra llegada a La Paz a las 5:50 Am, nos retiramos a descansar a la casa de la misión a eso de las 10:00pm de la noche. Fué un dia muy productivo, de adaptación a la altura, algunos compañeros tuvieron problemas de oxigenación, pero gracias a muchos mates y unas pastillitas que Javier nos suministró al llegar, todos nos sentimos mejor y terminamos el dia muy bien. Esperamos les esté yendo muy bién y les pedimos que sigan orando por nosotros, por la obra que Dios nos a asignado. Nos despedimos y les comunicamos que a partir del Lunes estaremos en los Yungas , Dios los bendiga a todos! Sarah y Mauricio.
The whole group was impressed with the dynamic of the youth group gathering. We saw a lot of enthusiasm, cordiality, friendship, fellowship and commitment to God in all the young people. There was a lot of praising, preaching, in a very fun and dynamic environment. After a day that started with our arrival in La Paz at 5:50 am, we returned to the mission house at around 10:00 pm to get some rest. It was a very productive day, in which we adjusted to the high altitude. Some members of our group had problems due to lack of oxygen, but with a lot of mates and some pills that Javier gave us upon our arrival, we all felt better and ended our day well. We hope everyone back home is doing well, and we ask that you continue to pray for us, and for the job that God has assigned to us. Bye for now, and as of Monday we will be in Los Yungas. God bless you all! Sarah and Mauricio.
