Traveling is exciting, but tiring so it feels good to be home and get back in our routine. On Wednesday morning we were back in Spanish class learning another verb form--assuming we can remember, we can now say that we "might/will" be doing something in the future. For instance, "we will speak Spanish this time next year." It seems pretty easy, but when it gets mixed around with the rest of the verb forms, it manages to be confusing! :-)
Vida Nueva Baptist Church has services (and Awanas) on Friday night and then 3 services on Sunday morning. The Friday night service has become so crowded that a Thursday evening service was added--last night was the first night. Stephen and I decided to stay at church after school was over instead of driving back home. I'm so glad we did because we had a torrential downpour about 5:30 p.m. The wind and rain were crazy and it wouldn't have been a good time to be on the road. More than 65 people attended the service (a very good start) which should provide empty chairs for tonight's service.
If you know Stephen very well, you know that he loves homemade ice cream. We were able to make one of his dreams come true--we now have our White Mountain hand-crank ice cream freezer here in El Salvador. Since everyone we asked told us that rock salt was not available here, we brought 8 pounds of it back with us from Florida. Although Halloween is not celebrated in El Salvador (I don't miss it as it was never one of my favorites), we are having 3 families over for homemade ice cream on Sunday afternoon. We will definitely be taking pictures of the inaugural cranking event.
Well, that's it for now . . . . class in 30 minutes.
