On Saturday La Red was great! We are going through a series on the value of a cent. Which was really interesting. So Jorge proposed a challenge for the group...everyone was given one cent and they have a month to try and see what they can get for a cent. It's going to be a sweet and interesting challenge. Then after well all went out to pizza hut for dinner. Then on the way back we packed seven people into Jorge and Sarah's Honda Civic. I've come to realize that you try and fit as many people as you can in cars, you find room...haha.
Sunday we went to church and Victor started a new series called to believe or not in the Bible. The message on Sunday was on the Bible is the word of God. The message was really good. Then after the service I helped Sarah with the new members lunch. Then we went over to Sarah and Jorge's for lunch and just chilled for a little bit...then it was time for the girls to play some FUTBOL!!!! I was so excited to finally play a real game of futbol...it had been awhile. However, I got locked out of the house so I didn't have any shoes to play in. So I decided to play barefoot on the turf field...not one of my smartest ideas in the world but it was totally worth it so I could play. It was SO much fun to play...oh how I've missed playing futbol!! I for sure learned that here in El Salvador the girls do not play as aggressively and rough as we do in the states, but it was a great time and I can't wait to play again. I did end up with some pretty big blisters on my feet and it was kinda hard to walk after the game but once I got back to the house I iced my feet and put some band aid with bacitracin on them and they are now healed.I totally went to bed at 10pm and that's the earliest that I have went to bed since like last Wednesday, every other night I had been out till like 12:30am, and I wake up at 5 or 6am automatically so you can imagine that I have been tired.
Monday the morning was relaxing and then I went to the University with Kumar and Sarah. This was sweet cause I really hadn't been to the University before other than to drop people off and when we had our first La Red meeting on campus. Sarah showed me around the campus and then we saw Julio who just prayed to receive Christ on !!!and Sarah started talking with him. Then I just started talking to this guy named Daniel(at least I think that was his name lol) and I had a conversation with him and it was completely in Spanish. I was pretty excited to be able to have a conversation and he actually understood what I said...haha. Then Sarah, Kumar and I met up with Anai and talked with her about her faith and coming to church and such. Which was sweet. Then I tried what is called Yuca it was really good I can't really describe it but it was good. Since I'm not with the mission group I get to try any food I want but Sarah has told me some foods to stay away from like cortido because that like rips apart your stomach. Then after we went back to Sarah and Jorge's house to have lunch. Then we went to go to the offices and on the way we stopped by this street vendor that was selling ice cream! That ice cream was amazing! Its different than regular ice cream you get in the states, it didn't have as much cream in it! It was just so good! So I got some work done and chilled at the offices but I started to realize that my body it kinda sore from playing soccer. I guess that's what happens when you don't play for a while ;)
Anyways I'm off to the University again in a little bit.
