We're finally moved into the new church building! A full house was present Friday, May 4 as we held the inaugural service. Many first-time visitors came, as well as folks who hadn't come to church in a long time. The day was celebrated with singing, dancing, prayers, and food.

The rest of the weekend we spent in nearby Nuevo Eden (Yanamayo) for their church anniversary. The highlight of the weekend was the baptism of Darling in a pond at the trout farm.
