Tarma Ladies' Retreat May 2013, a set on Flickr.
When Ana left her native country of Bolivia to come to Tarma, Peru to visit family she was worried. Would there be a group of evangelical Christians in Tarma where she could worship like she did back home? Not long after arriving in Tarma she met Betty who was planning on attending an upcoming ladies' retreat at the Tarma Shalom Church. Would Ana like to go with her? Ana accompanied Betty, and realized that God's family is present in many countries and that He always provides for His children.
Ana, Betty, and many other ladies from several local churches attended a one-day event focused on the theme of "Perfume for His Feet". We learned about how our lives should give out a pleasant aroma that attracts others to Christ, and how we need to let Christ change our character when other disagreeable odors are more prominent.
