week one in buenos aires

The trip has gotten off to a sweet and memorable start here in Buenos Aires with Walter, Adriana, and Cora Focatto. It has been so great to share life and experience the culture here. During our now fifteen years of friendship, Walter often speaks of the people and the culture he loves. So, it is so good to finally experience life here with the Forcatto family!

Our times have included walking the neighborhood and downtown areas, drinking Argentine mate (like tea)in the mornings and afternoons, late-night dinners, Argentine asado (bbq) with the neighbors upstairs, worshiping with their church family, and so much more. The time has also included a couple of visits with the kids on the streets with Walter. I am always amazed and inspired by Walter´s heart and love for these kids. It is so cool to see the beginning of these relationships. I know and trust God has some incredible ministry ahead here, as they continue to share God´s heart and love with the kids!

One more week here before I am off to Rome and Prague. I will try to post again soon, including some pics!
