I saw the most beautiful sunset from the roof of the house. The sunset was framed by huge mountains…in fact when I looked around all I see are mountains so large and grand, all I could say was “Thank you God for your creation”. from the roof I here traditional Mexican music from various houses and it is so peaceful. I also saw the biggest bug ever today.This thing was probably the size of an ipod shuffle…maybe bigger.

We have lost power several times, sometimes due to a storm and other times we have no clue why. Friday night is kids club, which I was really looking forward too. We put on a skit of the story of Rahab, in which I was Rahab. It was pretty funny. It was in Spanish too. We played games and sang songs. Every Friday here they receive donations, this time we got tons of fruit, bread, and even cake. We keep enough that we need here and the rest we give to families who need it. It is funny I am saying “we” but I am starting to feel like I am part of the family, I really love it here. I wish I could stay. I think I could stay. I could see myself being here for a long time.

I have definitely had to step out of my comfort zone and have done things I have never done before… I am more adventerous here than when I am home. I try not to come off as a spoiled girly girl, that I probably am.

There is a place with the most delicious sandwiches ever! We have already gone twice. They are Cuban sandwiches and are my favorite thing.

Today was a church workday and I spent the first half with the kids and the second half weeding a garden in the hot sun. Never would I think to find myself sitting in dirt pulling weeds. I actually didn’t mind it that much…I figured it was a chance to work on my tan. My lower back hurt after. What compelled me to volunteer to weed a garden, when I already had a job working with the children…well I figured since I am here to serve God I should do it anyway I can…sometimes it is by doing something I love and sometimes it is by doing something difficult.
