Our Site Selection Trip to Puerto Maldonado (Day 2)

31 March 2017

A most successful outcome was realised with the straight forward purchase of a good transmission site for our FM transmission to cover this fast growing city now approaching 200,000 people.

Here are comments from a Diospi Suyana post by Klaus (includes some edits by me as thought necessary);

It is like Piccadilly Circus.  After several days of preparations via email and telephone, countless measurements on a computer and strategic considerations, the big moment has now finally come: Sra. Margarita Malaga Pacaya and Dr Klaus John sign the sales contract.

Udo, Doris and Klaus approach Garcia Medina Notaria (centre building) in downtown Puerto Maldonado.
Our signed legal instrument in the Notary assigning our new transmission site to Diospi Suyana.
During it all a TV on the wall is running at full volume.  If anyone needs a proof how urgently a Christian TV programme is needed, here you have it.  Left on the screen a new age magician / astrologer leads the spectators to be believe in the wonderful life of money, sex and power, which an attractive woman in a swimsuit on the right hand side of the screen underlines – all during children’s morning viewing hours!  There is no classification system in PerĂº.

In a couple of months, when the satellite connection is in place, Diospi Suyana will be able to reach hundreds of thousands with the best message around: God is real and he loves us.  Our life consists of more than money, sex and power.  We need to be at peace with God, have a fulfilled life and a perspective after death.

We then embark on our 11 hour return journey home to Curahuasi, arriving just before midnight.
 
We battle through the traffic of Puerto Maldonado heading out of town.
Again we are passing some beautiful “suva” countryside as we head home.
And the fresh fruit here available in roadside stalls is amazing and in plentiful supply (albeit unfortunately there was no time to stop on our trip home).
A not uncommon sight is laundry time and bath time all in one on the side of the Panamericana highway. 
Regards,

Chris

  1. Chris (and family), so good to hear from Ps H and J recently about you guys; and to read of your rapid progress. Every time I hear or read of your work there, I can't help but picture you at a very very tall waterfall. But you're not standing there, you've already leapt off the edge and I see you in the classic swan-dive pose against the rushing stream of water.
