Well I guess I can officially say I'm kind of getting into the routine of living in Antigua. It's definitely different. I had the extremely enjoyable experience of riding a Chicken bus today. It was pretty crazy. You kind of just get up when you want to get off. There are no safety standards whatsoever. It was pretty awesome. Food here is amazing. Even the fast food is a billion times better than food that I've had in the US. Todat I visited a macadamia(?) nut farm and that was quite the experience. It was a crazy hippie american who ran it. Very interesting thoughts. Oh! Mel Gibson was in Antigua yesterday. My host family met him in the Central Park. I was a little jealous. Dinner that night prompted some conversation about some of his best movies. The whole family agreed that the Passion of the Christ was his best. The two Danish kids who live with me have never seen it and it was pretty cool to hear that they were at least interested. I believe God can work in crazy ways, even movies sometimes. I'm definitely praying for them. I have 4 hours of school in the morning and 2 in the afternoon and it's pretty darn exhausting. Next week I start 4 hours a day which should be much easier on my brain. I'm picking up the language pretty quickly which is definitely good. I can prety much understand anything said to me, I'm just not too good at speaking it yet. It should get better sa time goes on I hope. I think thats really all I have for now. I'll throw some prayer requests on the bottom of this.
Prayer Requests
Pray for conitnued patience. It's extremely stressful sometimes.
Pray again for the people living with me
Pray for my family and people that are missing me back home
Pray for continued health
Pray for a Godly mindset for me so that I can stay focused on why I'm here
Pray for Centro Biblico El Camino, the church I will be working in
and anything else you might want to pray for!
