Today was a good day and we had a free half day where we all got to do what we wanted and just got some rest. And then at three we all piled up in a truck and set off to a little town up in the mountains about two hours away to support victors friends local church. It was a good ride with windy roads and a nice breeze cause it was ten times cooler up the mountain. So. Got there and hung out for a min getting to take some photos cause the view was really nice. We had no idea what are purpose was, we were just told it was to go and support a local church and do whatever they wanted from us, but that just  ended up attending a church service that would be like one that I had never been to. They had a guest speaker that had lived all over the place and was from costa rica and had lived in the states for awhile. He gave his sermon and was very energetic and loud, yelling and repeating a lot. It went on for awhile and then after he wanted to pray and ask for anyone that wanted to be prayed for to come to the front. What happened next I am still trying to understand or just take in cause I have never personally seen or been in a place that was like this. He was praying and speaking in tongues and the people were all gathered up at the front of the room. People were crying and some doing more than others. One lady was shaking and looked like she was going to pass out and another lady did pass out, it was a shock I thought that she had hurt herself, but the speaker told us she was fine ha. I was like ok. This went on for awhile and I was standing off to the side kind of just trying to take in as much as I could and try to get a understanding of what was happening cause it seemed very odd and weird to me, to them normal and was very interesting to see. I guess it shows just how much the people here are desperate to need something to get t hem through the hard days and the times when they think that they will not make it. the service was good to experience, but kind of made me feel unsure on how to take in everything that had just gone on and don’t really know if I can right now. I had never seen anything like what had happened last night so I was shocked.Â
That was a quick over view of everything that we did last night and hope you get a feeling of how strong these people worship and was a real eye opener for me and hope the same for you.
