That sadness that many of them already not estan in this world, who writes is the Dr. Omar Cabezas Fernandez. I want to ask for help to help these people (BIA) for 5 years am employed at the same community as Doctor, until March, 2009 habia an indigenous insurance with which secontaba to improve his health. Since then I am begging for medicines of some Laboratories, drugstores, you prove to be doctors, etc. If they could help us they agradeceria much.

I was with this tribe for 6 weeks in the summer of 1985 I believe, what memories this bought back, I came home with a bow and arrow. Years later now my parents just visited and returned them to me, it spurred me to research. I am now showing my kids were I was and the amazing experience I had when I was 15 years old. Thanks so much for posting.

I was with this tribe for a summer in 1979 with Teen Missions International. At the time they still had no contact with anyone but the missionaries. I helped construct several buildings near the airstrip and in their village which at that time was about a mile into the jungle. I was 15 then and can still remember the whole experience.

I was at this camp though New Tribes Missions in 1988. These pictures bring back crazy memories! Thanks for posting.

For one thing, God certainly didn´t forget the Yuquis! Years ago, God used me to affect the life of Julio César Flores who later died from cancer while still a university student. Miguel Flores was his younger brother who later stayed with me in Cochabamba while studying in a local university for a short time. Later he moved to Santa Cruz and then back again to Cochabamba to prepare himself in a missionary trainning centre. It was there that he went to the Yuqui tribe and stays there till today!

Oh, by the way...the girl on the third row on the end...the necklace she's wearing...she made that with us at VBS!!! I'll have to let y'all see the pic of one of us wearing one just like it! hahaha
Hannah Martin 01-Dec-2008 22:07
WOW! This is so amazing! I recognize so many faces! The kids, the church, the river ~ so many memories...So, I'm assuming y'all know Miguel? Wow. I'm so glad people are still ministering to this tribe. Please keep me updated!

Wow.
I lived with this group as a teenager (1976-1979) because my parents were missionaries at that time with New Tribes Mission. It is so interesting for me to now, as an adult, read the works of various anthropologists who also spent time with this tribe; the point of view so different from the one I was raised with. Thank you for taking these stunning photos. I'd love to know more about when you were there and what your experience was...
