Bella Union

Short entry due to awful keyboard...

Bella Union was not my favorite village... we didnt get to hang out with children as much, nor was the town centralized (rather, very spread out), so I didnt feel like we connected as well with the people there. The on-site team there was great, but the factors of my sickness and not feeling used by God there made it a hard few days. However, we did have a few really great experiences. My favorite was a Bible study that the four of us girls went to do at a lady's (Julia) house/ peloqueria (hair salon). We were starting the study when two clients came in, so she had to stop and cut their hair. One of the guys saw our Bibles and asked us if we were reading it. We said yes, and he asked if they could stay. We said of course, and the "15- 20 minute study" turned into over an hour of questions concerning catholicism, saint worship, etc. It was awesome. He got answers straight from the Word of God, and we are hoping that Julia and her husband continue to minister to those 2 young men (a little younger than me). :-)

We headed off to midsummer debriefing after that, which convenientely is the next blog entry!
