Sunday July 16th
Today we drove for two hours to visit the birth place of St Rose of Lima. What a drive!, we traveled to the periphery of Lima, a very different part of the city. We climbed a mountain where parts of the road have been washed out and temporary dirt and stone take its place. We were 55 in a Pullman bus!
At one point we came up a dirt road to find a temporary bridge to cross, the bus had to back up to negotiate the turn onto this narrow bridge. I was not near the window, so I don't have a picture. I hope to get one from someone who did. It was amazing and a little unnerving as well. BUT, we made it and celebrated Mass there, visited and had a delicious chicken dinner.
Tomorrow, we begin anew. Please keep our Assembly in prayer as these next days will be direction setting for the next 6 years.
