Hey Peeps!
I'm writing on my last day here and actually its already Sunday here. I'm really sad to leave El Salvador...I really do love El Salvador, primarily the people. I've built relationships here that are going to be ever lasting. I can't wait till I come back.
The past couple of days I've mainly chilled and hung out with Victor Raul and Silvita. I also finally finished the missions website. I'm really going to miss hanging out with Victor Raul and Silvita :(
As some of you may know God has really put it on my heart to possibly come to El Salvador for a longer period of time and so on Wednesday morning, Victor, Silvia, Christina and I went out to breakfast to discuss my future in El Salvador. After talking with Victor, I've decided to apply for the 1yr missionary program through GCM!! I would deeply appreciate your prayers!! Then I said goodbye to Sarah(she was leaving to go to the States that night). Then I just hung out the rest of the night with Victor Raul and Silvita. Thursday I ran some errands and did some other stuff. Then we had my going away dinner with the Turcios family and Christina. We went to this nice Mexican restaurant and sat outside and there was this guy playing saxophone(Alexa I totally thought of you right away!!) It was SO great, I've been SO blessed to be able to stay with this family...I'm going to miss them a lot!!
Friday I finished up the missions website and ran my last couple of errands that i needed to run and finished helping Christina move into her other room.
Today, Saturday, was a great day!!! I speechless, God has blessed me SO much with all my friends here! I went to lunch with Luis and Gloria and then walked around Galerias for a while and then went to La Zona(which is the youth ministry). That was such a good and encouraging time, Jorge gave a very good message on becoming a influential leader. It was also a sad time because I had to say goodbye to people :( Then we left to go to La Red! La Red was chivo(this is awesome in Spanish slang)!!! They put up a sweet going away sign for me and then we got everything ready and played a sweet icebreaker game. Then Jorge gave a good message on finances. Then they went around the room and people shared encouragement and words with me about my time here in El Salvador...I was touched deeply. I love the people in La Red, they are like my family!! :)Then after we order pupusas of course :)great last meal in El Salvador!!! :)However, then I had to say goodbyes to everyone, this was REALLY hard :( I really don't want to leave, i'm going to miss everyone SO much!!! but I will return to El Salvador!!
God has done amazing things in my heart in my time here and I just want him to be glorified!! I'm excited to see all of my peeps in Ames again. To my El Salvadorian friends, I'm going to miss you SO much and I can't wait till I can see you again y Dios te bendiga!!
Well, I have to get up in a couple of hours, so buenos noches!! Te quiero El Salvador mucho!!!
