Soccer... Preaching... Starbucks... Sickies...
Friday, August 17. HELLO EVERYBODY!!! This is Leanne!!! This is kinda cool because I don’t think I have written a blog before, so here it goes... We woke up at about 9:00 to go play soccer with the group of pastors that we met yesterday. They pretty much smoked us... But it was fun! The score was like 12-10 or something like that. After playing for about 2 hours we headed back to the hotel for showers and lunch. After lunch we headed to our favorite ice cream place and Starbucks. Kinda weird, I know, but some crazy Americans wanted Starbucks over cultural ice cream!!! Gringos...
We didn’t have CI that night but we went to the seminar to sing and play and share some testimonies for a few minutes. We then drove to Pastor Antonio Rojas’s church, which was about one hour away, for their ninth anniversary! On the bus ride, Ruth started feeling really bad; so bad that Elizabeth thought about flying her home! We met a doctor at the church, they took her to a clinic. She is doing better now but if you could continue praying for her that would be great!! Andy preached at the mission conference/ anniversary celebration and did a great job. Towards the end of the evening Joanna Tyrrell got sick so we decided to get out of there as quick as possible before anybody else could get sick. Joanna is doing better today as well (I'm writing this on Saturday morning), but continue to pray for her. So that is Friday.
As for me, so far, I have really enjoyed the trip.I just want to thank you all for all of your prayers and encouragement!!! To end it all I will have to say... it all started with the mayonnaise.God Bless you all!! - Leanne Conzatti :-)
Those not inclined to play intense Peruvian soccer made another trip to the Inca Market.
A frequent sight for us - the streets and traffic of Lima.
