3 hours of sleep and the after math

Hi everyone this is Jenna Rathlisberger and Erin Clark. Today was a great experience for our first full day in Mexico even though we were tired from a long day of traveling. We got a lot of time to spend our friends and we made new friends at Mvm and with the people we came with. After a fabulous lunch we went into town (about a 5 min drive) to the market. It was a completely different experience than we have had in the states. A lot of young girls tried to sell us stuff and we felt bad because we didn't know what they were saying and we couldn't buy from them. The point of going to the market today was to experience it and not to shop, don't worry though we get to shop on Friday! On the drive we home we noticed a lot of run down houses and eventhough they had so little they seemed so happy with what they had. We are sure we will see more of that tomorrow. We were able to get ice cream in town and it was Fantastic! After we came back from the market we planned for vbs tomorrow. We will all be at one site tomorrow (and all week)hosting vbs and they are expecting 130-150 kids to come. We are so excited to get going tomorrow! We also learned some english songs we want to teach them and we learned Spanish songs from our friends at Mvm that we are going to do as well. We had large group time outside tonight and we worshiped together. After large group time we broke into our small groups to talk about the day. We really liked our small group time, we feel like we got to know the people in our groups better. We are super psyched for tomorrow and the rest of the week. We are both excited to see how we grow spiritually during the week as well. Thank you for all your prayers, we are all doing just fine and no one is sick, Woo hoo! With love Jenna and Erin
