So I learned something very useful yesterday! In Guatemala, to get hot water, you have to turn the nob to the right, even though it will turn off, but don’t turn it all the way. lol anna started my shower yesterday and taught me how to use it. I was so happy, the mirror was foggy when I got out :]
I have videos of our walk to school and of a little girl at a store that was playing ball with us but i couldnt get the videos to upload so maybe tomorrow! sorry!!
Oh and ill have a video of the kitchen in our house. Violeta doesn’t let us take pictures in the kitchen . I don’t know why. The video is also Abby and Anna talking about their teachers!
So, yesterday I got to tell Zoila about Honduras and Finca Grace . I told her Juan Carlos and Samuels story. I told her about the ninos de la calle (street kids) .. she said that there are more street kids in Honduras and Nicaragua than there are in Guatemala. She was really surprised when I told her about most of this stuff. She said in Guatemala she likes the Christian church more than the Catholic church because she said that the Christian church helps more with the poor than the Catholic church. She said she thinks it is muy importante to help others and to show the love of Christ. She had some very interesting stuff to say . Next week I am taking my bible and she want to teach me important words for the bible. But the bible uses vosotros a lot . y no me gusta vosotros.
Interesting night, last night. I woke up in the middle of the night like 3 times. Blahh.
A girl yelled war eagle at us yesterday on the streets of Antigua.
We didn’t get to get the cellphone because it took so long for me to get my travelers checks cashed. We had to go to 3 different banks. I do not advise travelers checks next time.
I found a guitar for 47 dollars . Should I buy it? I want your feedback. I don’t know if I could get it to Honduras but I know if I got it to Honduras I could probably just leave it there with the boys. Its just a cheap one, but its something to play.
We got the transmitter for the outlet! So hopefully I can update more. We don’t have internet at the house, but we can type up the blog and put it on the internet as soon at we get to school, which is what I’m doing! So anyways! Hope you enjoy the movies!! We miss you all !! ! Te amo!!
“My heart rejoices in the Lord!
The Lord has made me strong.
Now I have an answer for my enemies;
I rejoice because you rescued me.
No one is holy like the Lord!
There is no one besides you;
there is not Rock like our God.
Stop acting so proud and haughty!
Don’t speak with such arrogance!
For the Lord is a God who knows what you have done;
He will judge your actions.
The bow of the mighty is now broken,
and those who stumbled are now strong.
Those who were well fed are now starving,
and those who were starving are now full.
The childless woman how had seven children,
and the woman with many children wastes away.
The Lord gives both death and life;
He brings some down to the grave but raises others up.
He lifts the poor from the dust
and the needy from the garbage dump.
He sets them among princes
placing them in the seats of honor.
For all the earth is the Lord’s,
and he has set the world in order.
“He will protect his faithful ones,
but the wicked will disappear in darkness.
No one will succeed by strength alone.
Those who fight against the Lord will be shattered.
He thunders against them from heaven;
the Lord judges throughout the earth.
He gives power to his king;
He increases the strength of his anointed one.”
-Hannah (1 Samuel 2)
