Arriving and Unpacking in Lima

We arrived in Lima on September 5th and have been unpacking and settling into our apartment and life in the city. We spent the first week and a half setting up our apartment and getting to know our area of the city. Paul returned to work 2 weeks ago and Cael and I are trying to get into a routine here at home.
The people in the communities in Lima have demonstrated excitement about starting savings groups, which look to be started within the next couple of weeks. We have also heard that the groups in Pucallpa continue to function and are thriving!
As you can see from the pictures below the process of moving to Lima and adjusting to a new setting is exhausting. These pictures of Cael were taken within the first couple days of arriving in Lima. He finally had enough unpacking, so he found our pillows and decided it was time to take a nap. This is how we found him. The former renters also left us a nice hammock which fits nicely on the roof. Now we can enjoy the occasional sunshine here in Lima.
Please keep us in your prayers as move through all the new changes and challenges over the next several weeks/months.
