Rosa's stove and our hot water heater run on canisters of gas. The family buys tanks and then a truck comes by on a regular interval to collect empty tanks and replace them with full ones. However, the gas truck has not come in several weeks. The tank for the water heater is empty, and the one for the kitchen stove is nearly so.

Javier to the rescue! He returned to Morochos for his final week today, and he brought a friend who had an extra tank of gas. We exchanged our empty canister for her full one, and now we have a supply of gas for cooking! Otherwise Rosa would need to cook outside on the fire, as she had on a past visit when gas was also in short supply. Thank you Javier and your generous friend!
