The Loving and Leaving Series




The following several blogs are a walk through our time in Peru. After the Loving and Leaving series are the blogs we have written through our transition back to South Carolina. On the right side of the page is a list of these entries. As of today, Sunday, October 19, Gillian is almost 33 weeks into her pregnancy with twins. The twin baby BOYS are healthy despite early concerns, preterm contractions, and bed rest since August. More updates on the babies follow this series of blogs.

Thank you for your continued prayers for our family and for the ministry God has at work around the world. We hope you enjoy your walk through our time in Peru.

In Christ,

The Brickeys

Loving and Leaving Peru - Hunger Corps Missionaries

The group of Hunger Corps missionaries that we served along side was our family away from family. Words cannot express how much this group has impacted our lives. We came a long way as a team over our months there, and we came even farther as friends. Thank you. We miss you.

Loving and Leaving Peru: Int'l Christian School of Lima

Our oldest's school was a large part of Gillian's personal ministry during our time in Peru. She both ministered and was ministered to through this diverse school. Both of our boys were also blessed by their ministries, and we miss everyone dearly.

Loving and Leaving Peru - Our Home Life

Our home in Peru was an apartment owned by our country director, Rosaura Mesones. It was filled with many friends and great memories during our time in Peru. We are thankful for our little home, and it was sad when the door closed behind us.
