So what´s it like to be a missionary? You know I´m not so sure I could tell you at this point... Getting her and getting going was quite the crash course, though a full nights rest last night has helped so much. I´m incredibly excited to get to know all these people more. It is a strage thing walking into a group of people who have already been here for two week. I already feel slightly ´´american´´ when I´m around them, which shows just how well everyone assimulates themselves here. Yesterday started slightly late for me since I was told to get atleast a few hours of sleep. Later i got to help lay cement for next week´s clinic sit. It was really nice to do some good ´ol manual labor as well as meet the guys. After a long day the Sabbath was upon us and a bonfire was made. We sat around, talked, sang songs, and had worship. Nights are beautiful here in Peru and surprisingly the heat isn´t that unbearable...yet! I´m excited to start this next week and to begin really working .But for now it´s Sabbath, my 1st Sabbath in fact. Time to go learn some Spanish hymns!!!
That's a pretty awesome sign, Andrew. What a cool name...Your manual labor puts me in the mind of Borneo. Hauling all that cement-yeah!
