Lakes of Mojanda

The first few pictures are from a place called the Lagunas de Mojanda (Lakes of Mojanda). As you can see here, it is a very beautiful place. We went there with our friends and neighbors, Angel and his family. I think I've introduced them on here before. I know our families know them and they were quite popular with them when they were here. Anyways, these lakes were at a high elevation. I think it was somewhere around 13,000 feet. The place looked untouched, like something out of Lord of the Rings. We saw the horses on the way down. There were quite a few of them in the field, maybe 40 or so. I didn't capture all of them in this picture. The last picture is of Cesar, Camila and their daughter, Anna Maria. We've met them recently and have a great time getting to know them recently. Will have to tell y'all more about them in our next prayer newsletter. We hope to send that out this week.
For now, I want to close with another favorite verse from Colossians and will have to continue later with more favorite verses from the great book.
Colossians 1:28-'We proclaim him (Jesus), admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone perfect in Christ.'
This is a prayer request for the work that we and other believers are doing here as well as a great verse. To clarify, I want to say that the word perfect means complete more than sinless. Other translations read mature. Dios les bendiga/God bless! Hasta luego/see you later!
