We took a little detour on our way back to the park where we were to meet as a group during the retreat in Ticaco. To my surprise we ran into the house module I built in 2001 on my first mission trip! That year we came up here to build the modules because of the huge earthquake that shook southern Peru just a month earlier. It was an encouraging reminder that though the circumstances seem difficult, God uses everything we lift up to him and does a work of endurance.
It amazes me that these little structures have survived so many years! I also made a trip in 2001 in response to the earthquake - I think we built 4 or 5 modules. I hope they are doing as well as this one!
