Chinca, Peru


On Wednesday I left our main mission site at Hannah's Hope orphange and took a small group of students to Chincha, Peru. We took public transportation in a double decker bus. Our ride was about 2 hours.

This photo was taken on the street where we were working. The tents you see in the photo are where people are living due to the destruction from the Earthquake. If you enlarge the photo above you can get a feel for how dusty those living conditions are.

The team did demolition work at a local church that was completely destroyed. We worked pretty hard for 2-1/2 days and even got to do some home visits. At right is Pablo and his family. He has one room left of his home. The rest of the rooms are gone.
