You guys see what gets posted. Schedules, pictures, just day to day ministry stuff.
But there are things that you just can’t catch on film. The giant blue morpho butterfly, the fleeting expression on a child’s face, the woman peeing in the front yard.
Um, did I just say the woman peeing in my front yard?
Why, yes, I did.
This is a different culture, lest we forget.
And my Spanish is improving.
How is my Spanish relevant to the previous information?
Because I yelled a complete sentence in Spanish (grammatically correct and without hesitation) at the woman peeing outside our bedroom window.
“This is not the bathroom!”
As a matter of fact, I shared that pertinent information with her twice, just in case she was confused about the ministry services we offer here….
Her response was a smile before jogging across the road so she could watch the rest of the soccer game.
Fleeting moments, bathrooms, and Spanish sentences…
