Today we finally got to learn a little more about the 5 missionary families serving in Cusco.  We started the day at La Fuente Clinic where we each worked with different providers or in triage. Individuals pay 5 soles to go to the clinic and there are many more services provided there than we had in Quenko. I personally spent the day in the pharmacy at the clinic, where I was able to interact with the pharmacist and also some of the children of the missionaries. It was a great opportunity to slow down and reflect on the changes the families would have to make in order to move from Georgia to Cusco. Their dedication to their mission showed through and through as we ate lunch at the Wilson's home and received a personal tour around the city. After visiting landmarks such as Incan ruins and Cristo Blanco, we made a trip to the market for some shopping where we were able to embrace some of the culture along the way. We are excited for more work tomorrow at La Fuente and are becoming stronger as a group each day. I am thankful for the opportunity to grow in my faith while being surrounded by great people and a beautiful landscape. As we go into our last day full day in Peru tomorrow, we are excited about all of the things that we will learn and serving all of those who we come into contact with.
