So, he needs to go in and clean and make the house livable for this family.  I (David) have the priviledge of going in to help him. The trip will consist of a 6 hour car ride, then a 7 hour boat trip, followed by a few hours of hiking, to get to the village.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the reason I am writing early this week.  We will be leaving tomorrow morning, and will return on Wednesday.  Pray for safety, and good weather.  Pray we can get the house ready for the family to live in for the next 6-7 weeks.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is about a 2 hour hike from the family we visited last year with Caleb.  Sam and Hazen&#8217;s home, if you remember them.  I&#8217;d love to be able to visit them again while I am out there too.  <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"173\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/david-watters\/files\/2021\/05\/e2-Kids-2021-1-1-600x173.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-966\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/david-watters\/files\/2021\/05\/e2-Kids-2021-1-1-600x173.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/david-watters\/files\/2021\/05\/e2-Kids-2021-1-1-300x86.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/david-watters\/files\/2021\/05\/e2-Kids-2021-1-1-768x221.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/david-watters\/files\/2021\/05\/e2-Kids-2021-1-1-125x36.jpg 125w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/david-watters\/files\/2021\/05\/e2-Kids-2021-1-1-250x72.jpg 250w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/david-watters\/files\/2021\/05\/e2-Kids-2021-1-1-450x130.jpg 450w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/david-watters\/files\/2021\/05\/e2-Kids-2021-1-1.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption>The kids of the current orientation class<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As we wrap up our time with these 9 families, we are excited about the potential of how God is going to use each one.
