We live in Trujillo, Peru and work with Peru Mission helping to grow God's kingdom in this part of the earth. I work with the medical clinics and Susan educates our five children now and then.

Happy Easter
Our first Easter in Peru was a nice one, except for Caleb who was a little under the weather.
The Arevelo church where we attend had a breakfast before the worship service and about 90 people came.
Later for lunch the missionaries, interns, and some guests from Lexington, VA met at the Bakers.
After that there was an egg hunt for the kids. Lauren was not sure what to do, but she did enjoy the candy
inside the plastic eggs. Hope all of you had a joyous day in the Lord.

Done traveling for a while
We went to Lima last week to finish getting our identity cards for the kids.
Now we can stay here for four years, with some minimal paperwork done yearly.
It feels good to know we don't have to make anymore trips soon.
Lauren is not a good traveler, and I am too cheap to get us a decent hotel.
I have started working at the clinic now and things seem to be going fine.
Hopefully this week we will collect the equipment from customs and start setting some
of it up at the clinic. My dad's sunday school class has offered to replace the computer that was stolen last month.
Also we have picked up some more support from another church. God proves himself faithful everyday,
sometimes I just fail to notice. Spanish is still a struggle, and I predict another year
before I feel like I can carry on in a conversation well. You know me, I can barely
keep one going in English, much less Spanish.
