Team Peru 2010

Photo: Team Peru - Week 2 (Alto Cayma)

I am home. There is a bitter sweet element to typing this message. The sweet part - well, I am home to my two favorite people in the whole world . . . my wife and our little girl. The bitter part, - it is really hard to leave Peru. There is so much work left to do; and coming home is really hard.

Our team this year was just fantastic. From every level of care delivery to ever special project, we had an amazing group of people. The trip spanned two weeks and included an outreach clinic (in total we provided care to over 900 children and adults), activities with the Mission of Alto Cayma, a special carpentry project to build a Sacristy at Father Alex's Church, and a couple of projects at the Elohim School in the Mariano Melgar community of Arequipa.

In the end, the greatest lesson for our team was learning to work together. It is always amazing to watch the team come together over the course of the trip. This year was no different.

We will be taking another team to Peru in October. If you are interested in joining HBI for an exciting adventure in the beautiful Department of Ancash, then please contact us at: info@HBInt.org
