Sunday Lunch

The small house filled with a smell of cabbage. The table pulled out into the middle of the room and all set, with nothing but the best of what they got. We were there the night before and had heard how they had got up early in the morning to start preparing this special meal.


The feast that was being prepared for us was from the pastor of the Los Lagos Church. Fabio and his family made Kimchi (which was a Korean dish), chicken with rice, tacos, salad and dessert. Everything was made from scratch and very delicious.


We sat and talked for a while after lunch sharing stories and telling each other about our families and what everyone does. They were also teaching me Spanish.


It's very hard to describe what all goes through your mind and all the emotions that this one simple act has on you. It's so hard for me cause I have come here to be a blessing but to get blessed like this just blows my mind.

In the picture is from left to right (the Fabio's daughter), the dog Spike, Fabio ( the pastors son), myself, Suyi ( Fabio's niece), Olga (his wife), Pastor Fabio, and the youth leader. Jason is not pictured but it is Suyi's brother is another one of my friends. Jason is in a band. Him and I hang out a lot.

I know that I have found my home church while I am here. The church is just outside La Cuenca. The members are all very friendly and open. It is also a Mennonite Church.

I just want to make sure that yall know that I appreciate your time and energy put aside to pray and read my updates and for all the support.
