Iquitos

The second week of our trip was spent in the city of Iquitos. We spent our time helping out Calvary Baptist Church and three of its church plants: Nueva Lamas, Quistococha, and Parraderra. We had services every night, and during the day we tried to get out and see some of the sights and things. We found some very interesting animals….
On Saturday we had a sports outreach, and we were able to present the program that we did for the Trujillo trip to those who came to the outreach. We were also able to do it for the kids in the Christian School at the church and we got to go to the youth group on Saturday night.
One Sunday, we hiked for almost 40 minutes through mud and water out to Nueva Lamas, one of the church plants. We stayed there for the morning service and lunch and then hiked back out and hiked in to another church plant in Quistococha for an afternoon service. Then we were in Calvary in Iquitos for the night.
