We’re the Daggetts: Katie, Jeremy, Adileen (almost 9! Just finished 3rd grade!) and Kinney (Almost 6! Just finished kindergarten) and we’ve lived and worked in Arequipa, Peru for the last ten years. This is the Team Arequipa Newsletter, a publication that’s been running consistently for more than 15 years and for which you, at some point, signed up to receive in your electronic mailbox. Overloaded? Unsubscribe. Here to stay? Welcome!
Caily Moore lived and worked with us in Arequipa for the last 2+ years as part of a missions apprenticeship. You can read her complete letter here, but I wanted to share a snapshot of what she learned at the close of this edition of the Team Arequipa newsletter.
One of the coolest products of teaching Humanities in the Asia-Pacific this fall was this collaboration with my friend Michael Wright and his incredible weekly letter, Still Life. I assigned one of his letters about exploring diversity locally to the class, and then Michael and I worked together to share what that experience looked like for my students. Here’s what I wrote.
This October marked 10 years for us in Peru, a number that sort of astounds us, especially since that was the top part of our 5-10 year commitment when we moved to Peru in 2014. We don’t have any plans to move anytime soon, and continue to pray and discern what life and mission and family and work look like on an ongoing basis. Thank you for keeping us in your prayers.
