Missionary Sergio Duarte writes: I wanted to share the latest information we have concerning the river. Today it is at 8.2 meters and authorities think it will reach 9 meters between Tuesday and Thursday of this week. At camp the water is surrounding cabin 3 and 4 and the larger cabin we call “the lodge. ” The water last night was at the back porch level of the lodge. The other concern is that the have named this flood “the flood that came to stay.” Apparently the waters will stay longer than in previous floods.
The youth retreat in the first week of July is jeopardized. We are praying for God’s will and perhaps we will have to relocate the FEBU Pastoral Program at the end of July.
If you have access to Facebook, Jonathan is posting daily a video of the progress of the water under Campamento UCB. They have already taken furniture out the buildings closer to the water and working on emptying the others. We appreciate their work and dedication at this special time.
