UM VIM Out-of-Country Mission
Quito, Ecuador
November 9-16, 2006
The FUMC Outreach/Mission team sponsored a mission trip to Quito, Ecuador to make repairs and possibly start working on a laundry facility at an ecumenical low-income assisted living center just outside of Quito. This facility houses approximately 50 individuals and is supported by the residents and local churches in the area. There were issues with their current laundry and additional needs as well.
Where: Quito, Ecuador (Elevation approximately 9300 ft)
Lodging: Four nights at a Nazarene Seminary and one (1) nights in Quito and one (1) night in Otavalo.
Additional Needs: There was a request for a commercial washing machine and dryer for the facility which our church's fund raising has provided for these people.
A thank you to all who have assisted.
Pictures and more details will follow.
