Dear friends and family,

Thank you to everyone who has been praying for my travels. I arrived safe and sound to Bolivia on Mondays afternoon after two days of travel. Bolivia welcomed me with very hot weather.

The transition here has not been easy and has been very emotional in all honesty. I have been here for almost a week and I truly believe your prayer for me have made a huge impact. I have taken a couple of moto-taxis into town and am slowly becoming used to my surroundings. I am living in a community house with 9-11 other people. 

I had the chance to work two days last week and had the opportunity to meet some of the kids at the transition home and get to hear from the organization what they want from me during my time here. I hope that during this time I can be a blessing to them and shine a light to who God is. I was also able to get connected to a church today, and it was great to be in community with believers again. 

Please continue to pray for me during this time, that I would continue to adjust and that I would be able to be God's hands and feet to the people around me. 

Manuela
