I was on Anglican, Plain blog today and saw the story of a Canadian Mennonite family (parents & 6 children) who have been on a mission project in Bolivia and have run into some problems coming home again. Their passports were evidently "lost" by someone, and now they're being demanded to pay a $4000 "fine" to straighten everything out & be able to leave the country & go home to Canada. Can you imagine being stranded in a foreign country with 6 children? I cannot. Gotta be scary. Anyway, I'm posting here the address of the lady at the Canadian embassy who can help the problem. Please write to her. Thanks!
