After a cazy week. I'M BACK!! When I say I'm back I mean, still in Peru surrounded by Cholos,
eating rice and potatoes and chicken! Wooooooooooo.
(sarcasmo about the rice and potatoes and chicken.)
We had an interesting and tiring week. We
spent Friday night in the clinic because a sister in the zone was really sick. We spent FIVE HOURS IN A PERUVIAN CLINIC!!!!!!!! BOOOO!!! We left at 2 in the
morning, which is only a little late for curfew haha.
The Lord has blessed us A LOT in this area. We were able to be found by 5 people that the Lord has been preparing since Adam
and that's not a joke! We walked and worked and taught like crazy this week and
The Lord Made up every single difference. It was amazing! We are now teaching
Adison, Tatiana, Alfreda, Milena and Carlos. A family of four and Carlos. The Family was going to get baptized about 8 years ago, but they had to move
to Lima as an emergency and they recently got back. And the mom (bless her
heart) she chased us down which was hard for her because she is kind of old,
haha she ended up just yelling "Hermanos" because we walk fast she
said.
I thought about that moment. When she saw us
pass by. When she decided to come find us. I thought about what God Must have
been doing knowing that 4 of his children were about to be taught the truth.. I
imagine he acted a lot like football fans act when the WR is in the 20 and
getting closer to the end zone. Yelling GOGOGOGO C'mon Alfreda! You're so close!!! I
thought about that 50 year old woman running after us. Probably not fully
understanding why she had to talk to us. Not walking. But running on
Faith. My heart was filled with a type of Love and amazement that doesn't come
everyday. And when it does it kind of leaves you speechless. I think the Spirit
told me how much God loves us all.. and it's a lot.
Got to go but I hope that
everyone is good! That you can all do something nice for someone this week!
Sonriendo Siempre,
