Preparation for IVIM trip to Bolivia Oct 24 - Nov 22, 2009

After 3 years I am finally traveling back to my beloved Bolivia. Monica Bruesewitz, from Nevada, and I are traveling as United Methodist Individual Volunteers In Mission. We went to a weekend training and certification given by the General Board of Global Ministries Individual Volunteer in Mission officials to prepare for this trip.

We will once again be working with the missionaries, staff, and youth of T'iu Rancho in Payacollo, Bolivia. www.granerfamily.org is the website for the GBGM Missionaries in T'iu Rancho, Ardell and Gordon Graner.

We are almost 1 month away from leaving. We are asking for prayers most of all, donations if any are able, and also for the openness to embrace the people of T'iu Rancho who are working to strengthen their community solidarity through spiritual and educational opportunities.
