¡Hola mis amigos! After an amazing launch in Atlanta, my squad safely made it to Ecuador at about 2am Thursday morning. My team and one other have been doing manual labor at a facility that will house sex trafficked girls between ages 9 and 14. We are currently building a wall that will prevent the girls from running away and going back to their enslavers, but will also prevent the pimps and their gangs from trying to kidnap them back. The facility is about 1,500 ft above Quito which is at 9,200 ft above sea level. We are currently staying at a beautiful, little compound with multiple buildings in the heart of Quito. Here are some pictures from the place we are living at.
If you would like to further support me, you can purchase one of my shirts! They are on sale until the 30th. Message my mom at [email protected]. They are $20 plus shipping. Sizes 2XL and higher are $22. Thanks and I’ll keep you updated!
Thanks for sharing your pictures of the compound and surprise the see the blow picture of Jacob haha.
Thanks for this blog!!! Love the pictures. It helps us who are on the home front get a sense of your “new” world. It looks magnificent. What a privilege to help these young girls heal in so many ways. It stirs my anger just thinking about the abuse of these young ones.
I am especially grateful for the cameo of my son in one of those pics. 🙂
Lord, thank you for being the great provider. Where you call you provide. As Philip waits on you, would he be diligent with the action plan that he has prayerfully developed. Would Philip know that supernatural peace that surpasses all understanding in the wait. Stir the hearts of those who you are calling to donate, prick their hearts to immediate action. Help Philip to keep on keeping on just as you called the Israelites to continue to build the wall even as enemies rallied. We wait expectantly for you to provide. Amen.
Praying,
Mrs. Petterle Joshua’s mom
Love the pics. We’re gonna guess that you and Jacob are getting closer:-)
Thank you so much Mrs. Petterle! I’ll always be thankful for your kindness and your intentional willingness to be a part of us Silverback’s lives. It means so much to me and I am thankful for you and Joshua.
Thank you! The picture of Jacob is my favorite hahaha
Thank you so much, Mr. Chapoton. I will definitely keep it up.
I’m fixing to get a shirt. Keep going Phillip.
