Last days in Colombia

Our last two days were spent together as a family.  Bill and Angela took us out to eat and we enjoyed a good steak meal at a nice restaurant.  Colombia produces fine beef.

The restaurant.

There's nothing like a good steak.

The Vanegas family got some of the first smiles out of Cedric.

Gilberto was one of our first disciples in Bogota back in 1972.  We have had a close relationship over  all these years.  Gilberto is a Bible teacher, elder and pastor in his church, leads a big Emmaus Bible course ministry in Bogotá and teaches in the Bible Institute. 

What is unique now is that our eldest daughter, Angela, works alongside of Gilberto (our eldest son in the faith) in the Aposento Alto church (a Brethren Assembly) in the suburb of J.J. Vargas.  
Bill and Gilberto are elders together in the church.

Thank you for sharing your experiences in Colombia. I finally got a chance to catch up on it all! We are glad that you were blessed so much in your travels and that you were able to see old friends and minister so much.
