HOME

We, Helena Howe and Becka Esh are now home after 5 1/2 months in Peru with the Wenger family. We are so happy to be home again with our families; but it was so hard leaving all of our friends (including of course the Wengers!). We haven't written here on the blog much, but we hope that these pictures have each been worth "a thousand words." =)
 Blessing to each of you!
In Christ's Love,
REBEKAH & HELENA

AND WE'RE OFF!!

Helena and Betsie...sisters!

We look like sisters...don't we?

IN CUSCO

Becka and Helena in with the flowers...we moved out of the flowers gardens after the police man blow his whistle at us. =)
