Wa-new-co. Wa… What?!?

Wa-new-co is how you say the name Huánuco, which is a city in Peru. Now, maybe you are asking where this city is and why it is important? We’re glad you asked!

Find a map of South America and see if you can locate Lima, the capital of Peru. It’s right on the western coast, you see it? Now imagine driving five hours from the beach up into the mountains, along narrow mountain passes, until you come to a big valley. That valley might just be the city of Huánuco.

And why is this important? Because this week our Wheels for the World team is visiting this city for the first time to give away wheelchairs. The team has 200 wheelchairs to give away, and that means a lot of people will hear about God’s love for them. Won’t you take a moment to pray for these people right now? And then download this info sheet on Peru so you can learn more!
