When we arrived in Cagayan we then travelled by an ancient Jeepney, with
thread bare tyres, for many hours through the mountains. They have a great
need for a new Jeepney for mission outreach and emergencies; as an ambulance
to carry the sick and dying to take food into the other provinces.
This is their only transport to enable them to cover a vast area. We have
been told recently that old, damaged vehicles can no longer be registered
leaving them in a desperate sistuation.
We went to the river a distance away to bathe and wash, this was our
bathroom during our mission .....
We lived like natives for one month with only the bananas off the trees
and maybe if you were lucky a little rice with egg, fried potato and the
native coconut coffee.

With your support they will be able to buy a plot of land like
this, to grow rice, in order that they can be self-sufficient. The whole
village, who are poor, can be helped by this.
