its been TOO long.. our apologise :(

Hello all,

We apologise that we haven't put up a post in a while, been busy as over here.
So here is a bit of an update of a few things that have been happening over here.
In the next blog we will put up some new photos :)

So in the past month we traveled to Lima to finish (for now) the paperwork for Sarah to become a Peruvian Resident.. and we are happy to say with Jehovahs help and my mums translating Sarah now is a Peruvian Resident which helps us to serve Jehovah here even more as it means we do not have to leave the country and we can work if need be. Also a major bonus is tourism stuff and other things become either free or really cheap :D :D how Jehovah blesses hehehe

So with that done we did a little trip to CUZCO, Sarah absolutely feel in LOVE with Cuzco.
We visited my Papa (grandfather) who is faithful serving Jehovah there at the age of 89.. by himself for the most part but for the past year or so he has had the company of two of my cousins from Australia, Patrica and Michael, who are support the kingdom work in Cuzco and have been living with Papa. We got to spend some good quality time with them and in the ministry with them and met there congregation. We had a lovely time. In there congregation they have a couple who just recently graduated from Gilead :) They are a very inspiring couple. There from the UK.
The ministry in Cuzco is amazing as well... in the city centre its a bit tuff but when you get to the outskirts your talking about 20 studies per pioneer MINIMUM... Sarah was like, "I want to serve here!!" hahaha i think that has something to do with the weather in Cuzco... because Cuzco is a fresher climate.. not to hot... and Tarapoto is always hot... and if any of you know Sarah ... well... safe to say the heat doesn't FIT with Sarah...
My dear wife is doing such a great job putting up with the climate here.. makes me want to do more and encourages me very much. She always tries to stay positive and gives it her best even when everything goes up in the air.. at the moment the water issue has been very annoying hahaha
The water here has a mind of its own.. it turns off whenever it wants... usually at midday until 5pm which is the time when its the hottest and you just want a shower hahaha... we fill up a bucket so that we have some water during that period hehehe.
We always try to work around our challenges and look at the positive :) for example if you every knock on our door around midday in the heat of the day you will find us sitting on our bed... in front of a fan going full blast.. watching a movie or a TV series... sipping on an icy homemade banana,maca,chocolate smoothy and a delicious lunch hahaha and we just chill like that for a good 2 hours hehehe
Then when the heat goes down a bit we head back out in the ministry :) We are enjoying it here and we truly feel the same as that sister on the website video... It truly is the best way of life.

Well I have blab on quite a bit know so I will leave it at that.
We will do a new post soon with some photos.

We miss you all very much and please let us know how you guys are going :) thank you all those for your emails and comments... they have encouraged us greatly.

Love to you all
Josh and Sarah Rado
