Visit to the "volunteers in Mission" Team members


Olney, MD, August.- After this great experience of being part of the Chilean Gathering, I visited some friends and people who have been volunteering at the Renacer Methodist Camp and Retreat Center in Paysandu. I would like to give thanks to Marti and Alden English for their hospitality, to Rev. DaeHwa Park, and all of the members of the Oakdale Emory UMC in Olney, MD. This was a time for preparing for their October 2008 Volunteers in Mission trip to Paysandu, Uruguay.

I would also like to give thanks to Rev. Robert and Shirley Cook, from the Christ UMC of Waynesboro, PA, for their hospitality and support during my time in PA, and to all former VIM Team members to the Uruguay mission field who gathered Sunday, August 10th, at the picnic at the Gee's farm.
