Today began with a Bible study that Antonio led at the first church they planted. Most of it was Women, which is typical in the Mexican culture. After Bible study the church put on lunch for us, which again was wonderful. The funny this about lunch was that when we were in Bible study for some reason I was craving Lasagna, and wouldn’t you know that for lunch part of it was Lasagna. We enjoyed fellowship and then, headed back to the Navarretes home. Diana and Antonio needed to go to a funeral, so there kids, TJ & Alyssa and Joe and I stayed home for a while and then we all headed to a Mexican market with our Administrators. I got to take a “Mexican bus” for the first time. I was nervous but it really was a great adventure, although it did seem like chickens packed into a truck…he he. Walking through the market was very interesting, there were whole chickens being cut up along with many other animals. But they did have wonderful looking fruit! We then were able to go to the other teammate’s house, the Allen’s, and had pizza! But get this… they don’t put pepperoni on pizza! Then Ron Allen took us to … SAM’S CLUB. That’s right they have Sam’s club and it only took 15 minutes to get there. I was expecting to see a major difference but it looks just like home! I was so excited. We then headed back to the Allen’s home and celebrate Darlene’s birthday, one of the single ladies on our team. It was very exciting to see her so happy and us laughing all together. Tomorrow… brings lots more fun!
