Hello ALL :D
So the first day out witnessing... yeah... WOW
I was super nervous about going witnessing and was praying so much to Jehovah all day. So field service started at 7:45am and we worked at a territory where people are living on someone else's property.. not quite legal but there is a lot of interest. I worked with Bro Jamie.. and he pretty much started a study and had great chats with people. So amazing. Sarah worked along side Sis Flor, Bro Jamie's wife, and she started a study as well... all before 9:30am... YEaH i KnoW... awesome territory :D
So anyways it started to rain and we left the territory and went home to rest and had a beautiful lunch with the family. We ate Lomo Saltado, which is a very traditional Peruvian meal.
At 5:00pm we arrived at Plaza Bando de Shilcayo (which is like a city square in the area) to meet the group for field service. We met Bro Obed and it was just us for a while, which meant that Sarah and I worked together. We/I was super nervous... because my spanish isn't that good yet, but Sarah was there to push me along and support me.. it was funny because i would stand at the door thinking and anxious to knock and then Sarah would just come up and ring the door bell and knock for me hahahhahah... she is pushing me along hahah she is awesome.
So we where out only for around 2 hours and we got 2 return visits and I started a study with a lovely man that just said, "Just come over whenever you can and talk to me about the bible." YeAh WOW indeed...
Super cool day, and there is so much need here. So come along anyone and everyone :)
Tomorrow we start looking for a place to rent. We are super excited.
Something funny... We have had headaches since we got here and we where wondering why... maybe not drinking enough water... our the heat... well after having a chat with Mumma Raymond (Sarah's mum) we figured out what is was....
COFFEE hahahhaha we haven't had coffee hahaha so its good and bad... getting off the kick hahaha...
But here is the funny bit.... out of innocence Mumma Raymond said, "Why don't you just go to a cafe and get a cappuccino??" awww she's so sweet. Made us laugh hard... we are in the middle of the jungle and in a place that's selling bananas on the side of the street, there are no cafe's in sight hahahaha. It was a cute conversation.
Maybe thats a business we could do?? never know.
Anyways hope this was entertaining and encouraging as you all have encouraged us. Thank you all for your lovely comments and emails. Keep them coming :)
Till next time.
We love you all,
Josh and Sarah
