The air was kind of heavy, the weather clouding up. Mr. De Hoyos had some meetings in the morning, so Jamie and I sat out on the porch and read to each other, in Spanish, out of a book of sermon illustrations by D. L. Moody. We also practiced our Spanish vocabulary words…this time things around the house, kitchen, clothing, and more verbs.
In the afternoon, Kriss asked us to take more pictures of her house.
Alejandro, Samy (Samuel), Pancho "Franky" (Francisco), Victor, y Guero (Magdaleno)The evening we went to church in Vista Hermosa. It was a beautiful time. The spirit there is wonderful, and it was neat to see all the participation from the church members.
All of the members of the church were learning the order of the books of the Bible. Here is little "Mago" (that's his nickname) reciting all of them from Genesis to Apocolypses.
Zelina and Marcela taught the children. Zelina is explaining the craft: a little necklace with nails.
Little Mago putting the curtain rod back up. Every time the De Hoyos come for church, he races them down the street with the key. He usually wins. =)
It started to rain as we drove home from Vista Hermosa. It has cooled everything and the air is fresh and clean. The Lord sends his blessing like rain, and we are so grateful for His eternal and immense love for us.
Hey nice post dena! Its been great to hear whats going on! hahaha i had to laugh at one of the workers names.... we learned that word in spanish class :)
ReplyDeletegüero (thats how you spell it i think....) means "whitey" like "white boy" .....
Yeah...and "Pancho" means, "calm," which is a good description of the guy. They call Victor the "Padron" which is like saying "Big Daddy." :P
