Day 3!

HOLA!!!

Hope everything´s going well with everyone over there in Canada! I´ve been here for approximately 3 days and so far its been quite an adventure! For the past 2 days we have been having orientation at the "office" with training sessions and seminars and talks about ways to spread the gospel, learning about the culture and language etc. It was 2 long days starting around 8ish 9 to 9 in the evening but the things we learnt from the sessions were amazing. The crazy thing is, most of the verses and topics that they addressed have been things that/verses that I´ve been reading during my devos as well! Things like Ephesians 6 (about putting on the armor of God) and faith in Hebrews 11 etc. Because we´ll be spreading the word to people, I´ve been feeling like I want to be more grounded in the things I believe in and have been having conversations with various people about what really is faith when it comes to appling it practically etc. and its been most stimulating!

Today we actually got out of our little hotel and office "bubble" which consists of this main street named Peru Ave and went to the national university campus! it was really exciting and we were paired off and shared with students for about an hour, just to get a taste of how it´ll be like to share in Spanish, (or for people like me who knew minimal/no spanish, introduce ourselves in spanish) My partner and I managed to talk to a girl who was already knew God and we encouraged her to really get plugged in to the local campus for christ because she has been trying to spread the gospel to her friends on her own as well! Its amazing the way God´s been working in the students here as well :)

I´m only allowed an hour to update per week and it´s almost time to head back for another session and so I´d like to leave you all for now. Will be back to give another update in a bit!!!

Ciao!!!

ps please pray for the girl we talked to, Sandra, as well as all the students here as we prepare to head out to our various campuses next week! some students will be going out to San Tiago and I´ll be going to UTD, a technical university so please pray for us! GRACIAS!!!
