After arriving in Santiago yesterday, I took my dad to the mall for supper and a chance to look around in some stores. Then we took the new metro down to the southern end of the city and back. We both were very tired after the long night on the flight and the long day in the city.
We both slept well last night and are freshed for the new day. After reading some this morning we are repacking some of our bags to head north this afternoon. At 3 pm we take a bus up to Coquimbo to spend one night with fellow GMSA co-workers, John and Helen Prado.
Temps last night were wonderful (in the 60's) and will climb into the 80's by this afternoon.
Thanks for your prayers for us as we travel and seek God's leading.
I will try to post again late tonight.

Your trip to Northern Chile made me think of the inspiring sacrifice for lesser causes during WWII. This message was chiseled outside one of the Pacific's largest cemeteries:
WHEN YOU GO HOME
TELL THEM FOR US AND SAY
FOR YOUR TOMORROW
WE GAVE OUR TODAY
How wonderful to be able to say to a family, a church, a city and an unreached people of the earth, "For your tomorrow I gave my today." Not just for your tomorrow on earth, but for the countless tomorrows of your everlasting gladness in God.
