Pachacutec

This Saturday is our mission trip to the shantytown of Pachacutec. We're going to be having a "chocolatada" there for about 300-400 kids. We'll be bringing our young friends paneton, "cold" chocolate, and lots of gifts! It looks like we're also going to have a show for them, too.

Some of you have been to Pachacutec with us before, and so you know of the extreme poverty and desperation there. It will be an honor for us to bless our friends in Pachacutec with Saturday's chocolatada, as part of our FRC Lima Christmas Express project.

If you have signed up to go to Pachacutec with us on Saturday, then please remember that we will be leaving the cinema promptly at 12:00 P.M. Tiempo Americano! Please remember to bring wrapped Christmas gifts to distribute to the children there. Please mark somewhere on the wrapping regarding who the gift is for: a boy or a girl, and approximately what age.

Even if you are not joining us in Pachacutec, we still need you to donate Christmas gifts. Please call the church office at 441-1837 for more information about where you can deliver the gifts between now and Saturday at 12:00 P.M.

We're going to have a great time in Pachacutec as we bring a little bit of Christmas joy to a whole lot of kids who really need it!
