Our goals were to: 1) Spend time with the Templetons; 2) Help them move into their new apartment in Ponferrada; 3) Strategize with other Christian leaders on the best way to begin ministry in Ponferrada.<\/p>\n<p>It was exciting to help the Templetons move into a new apartment for a variety of reasons. We got better acquainted with Ponferrada, it helped us to understand what living arrangements are like there, we got a feel for the interactions between neighbors, and we got to tease Jon about his incredibly small coffee cups. I am not sure what else one could ask for.<\/p>\n<p>The city of Ponferrada has about 70,000 people, but because it is situated in a valley surrounded by mountains, it is fairly compact. The whole valley has about 135,000 people so there is a good mix of city and village life.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some pictures from the Templeton&#8217;s window and then around the city.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.scquest.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/IMG_5164.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.scquest.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/IMG_5164.jpg?w=584\" alt=\"IMG_5164.JPG\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.scquest.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/IMG_5165.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.scquest.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/IMG_5165.jpg?w=584\" alt=\"IMG_5165.JPG\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.scquest.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/IMG_5268.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.scquest.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/IMG_5268.jpg?w=584\" alt=\"IMG_5268.JPG\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.scquest.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/IMG_5273.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.scquest.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/IMG_5273.jpg?w=584\" alt=\"IMG_5273.JPG\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.scquest.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/IMG_5016.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.scquest.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/IMG_5016.jpg?w=584\" alt=\"IMG_5016.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.scquest.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/IMG_5070.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.scquest.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/IMG_5070.jpg?w=584\" alt=\"IMG_5070.JPG\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.scquest.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/IMG_5255.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.scquest.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/IMG_5255.jpg?w=584\" alt=\"IMG_5255.JPG\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We took off for the first half of November to visit our coworkers, Jon and Lorena Templeton, in Spain.
