We have experienced another hard week of gun violence in America. For me, it has been a week of intense emotions – heavy emotions as well as joy and hope. How do we escape the doom loop? How do we stop partaking when it is dished up to us from all sides of the media and culture that we swim in?

This past weekend our host families celebrated Mother’s Day in style, with flowers, outings and cakes! Many of our students met extended family: grandmothers and aunts, as this is a grand celebration in Ecuador. We had our own little party on Monday celebrating our students and teachers who are mothers too!
Classes this week included guest speaker, Julian Guaman, a member of the pastoral team at Quito Mennonite Church. He spoke on indigenous people’s issues and organizations, including various demonstrations which led to more government recognition of indigenous rights.
