Orphans

Saturday night, after youth group, I was excited to be asked to hang out with other people my age!! They asked me if I wanted to go to Pan de Vida with them on Sunday. I wasn't sure what all that entailed, but I hadn't really hung out with people from church before outside of church activities. So Sunday evening I went to the church, and Lesly (19), Job (21), and Alex (24) came, and some guy that I didn't know from Pan de Vida came to drive us out into the boonies where Pan de Vida orphanage is. We got there and it started to pour down rain, which was nice because it was soooo hot. Job, Alex, and Justo (the guy who came to pick us up), set up guitars and stuff, and all the kids came into the dining room where we were with the instruments. The kids are really cute, and they knew all the words to all the songs, even though we didn't have the words up... and Job and Alex didn't even know all the words! oops! Well, they played for about an hour, and the kids kept asking for more, so they ended up playing for like 2 hours! Toward the end, the girls all started screaming after each song because they liked our guys. haha! Anyhow, it was an interesting experience, and we are thinking about taking the youth group from Horizonte up to hang out with them, do more music, and play some futbol. Next time, I get to sing too, because I know most of the songs, and if it's just Alex and Job again, they need help because two hours of singing is hard!

Ok, I hope this all made sense, I was talking with people here, and with Honduran friends on the internet while writing it... I still don't have internet in my home, so I continue to haul my compu to Global...
