We are thankful for all the hard work from our local Santiago churches to get ready to host the tri-country Pastor/Missionary conference. There were several challenges that we faced in order to get the camp ready for the event.
- Delays in getting materials
- Work delays due to holidays
- Work groups not being able to come
- Difficulty getting qualified personnel or them just not showing up
- Machines not working or not working improperly
- Having to change plans on the go
In spite of it all, we praise the Lord for all that was done. We had people stay late working and spending some of their vacation and Saturdays helping where they could. We are thankful for YouTube tutorials.
Becca is recovering well from knee surgery. The biopsy came back benign. She has a couple PT sessions remaining. Bending and extending ranges are almost 100%. Sometimes with overuse (stairs in the metro) swelling can be an issue. We are thankful for your prayer for her continued recovery.
Thank you once again for your faithful prayers for us, our family & ministry. We are thankful to be back in Chile.
Serving Him,
Dan & Becca Vallette
