These guys are so great… All went on the road trip with us to Cusco and Machu Picchu. We ministered together, filmed videos together, ate together, drove many hours together and just had a great time! Thankful for them!

There really is no way to describe the immensity and grandure of the Andes and the Incan city. Here is a photo and short video for you…

We got up at 2:30 in the morning to go to Machu Picchu. Lot’s of bus and train rides to get there. It was a 23 hour day but wow. The boys and their grandparents got a little nap in right before dinner.
Music Video
Posted on January 22, 2016January 23, 2016Categories Peru, Travel2 Comments on Music VideoWe are shooting a music video for “Dios de los Redimidos” which is the Spanish version of God of the Redeemed which has been very effective here on this trip. Our host church Mar Adentro has a call to reach the Spanish speaking population of the world through TV which works out good because we feel called to the same group of people.
We had a lot of fun filming and drawing a lot of attention in Cusco and Machu Picchu especially when we used the drone. This was our film crew.
This is us singing by Inca stone walls. Not pictured are about 50 people staring at us while we worshiped God. One lady asked us if were were from Hillsong – so that made everyone’s day.
Excited to see the result of all the hard work. We will let you know when it’s done.

- The bustling streets of Juliaca.

You can literally feel it as it’s not just the sights that take your breathe away. Here are some pictures.

- Yep watch out for Llama, Alpaca, and Vicuña

- Our Peruvian film crew. We are shooting a music video this week.

- Check out the altitude. That’s pretty much higher than anywhere in the U.S.
-
- Some times you just got to stop and smell the lambs. So cute and very excited to see us.

- In Juliaca they like to keep it small. These are everywhere as well as a motorcycle version.
