So happy Miguel, Salvador's son was there, he was happy too!
We gave out plants to remind them of how the seed sower's plant should look when the seed falls on fertile soil.
Greg enjoying his last supper!
Angelica with a big smile, I was very happy to see that!
At the end we prayed for the "Lost sheep" who is Salvador. She cried and we know it is all gonna be just fine!
What an awesome night! We laughed and cried and generally had an incredible time. I really didin't know what to expect. EVERYONE came. That in itself was a miracle. Since yesterday was when they celebrated Corpus Christi (still not sure why) there was a HUGE party right beside our church. It was kinda like the devil was right outside laughing at us. They were litterally on the other side of a brick wall worshipping a statue and almost ALL of them were drunk as they did so. You could hear them hootin' and hollerin' as we were giving thanks to God for all of the many blessings we have been given over the past 3 years together. ( not at us, but just hootin' and hollerin' because they were drunk)
It was precious. Although it is a very idolic festival we knew most all of our friends would attend this party because it is just about the only fun thing that happens in the village all year. Everyone gets dressed up in their best clothes and it is more or less a reason for all of the women to show off their clothing. So we knew that many may not come, however, we had 45 come and we were thrilled to see them all one last time! I will try and add more pics later. However Greg is yellin' "LET'S GO!!" as we are heading into town for a few last errands. I am not a task master obviously! So, gotta go!
