We spent the last part of October and most of November in Pucallpa, Peru, the jungle. Albino participated in an international team to teach indigenous people how to write and publish materials in their native tongue. The goal is to increase the literacy rates in each language group by providing more resources; if people can read, they can read The Word of God and lives are changed. The course was hosted and supported by SIL as well as a university that serves native people from the jungle area. It was an honor to be part of this team. Sandy accompanied him and took advantage of the time to spend with some good friends. She was able to support the homeschooling effort in the missionary family, teaching 3 of the 4 kids.
