The Barrio of Nueva Verz Cruz

A number of people have asked me about the barrio where I live. What kind of area is it in? Is it more rural or urban? I have posted some pictures of the barrio in this blog so you can have an idea of the area we live in and the people that we are serving.
I will be leaving Bolivia tommorow for some vacation time with my family in Florida.
It is tough to have to go north during your winter but it is only Florida.
I will be returning on Friday, January 30th.
