Let's pretend that you are going to die... Yeah ,you! you my dear friend that are taking the time to read this, Listen carefully to me:
Lets use our imagination for a second....
Let's pretend that a car runs over you twice.. yes, twice... to make sure... That means you are death.....
or let's pretend that you are attached to this small machine in the hospital, and this machine goes from it usual beep, beep, beep.. to a beeeeeeeeeeep........ Then it means you are death.
Let's pretend you go to a bullfight but by accident you enter into the arena by the door the bullfighter uses... That means you are death or that you will be pretty soon....
Or that you have lost your lungs, kidneys, liver, and the heart... Ok, I think I am exaggerating... Let's put back the heart, but even so, you will be death...

Well got a clue? Yeah you are going to die! somehow but you will die.

They really loved this country but I still don't understand why they wanted everybody death... Well, for the ones that have no clue what am I talking about it's the last group outreaching technique... They would ask someone to pretend they would die.. then where would they go? ...and let me tell you it did work! Because tons of people accepted the Lord.
They were a big chicken coop... With Mom chicken, dad Chicken, boy chicken, Venezuelan pollo, funny chickens , GAP chicken, weird chicken, etc.
This group was not only fun... They were a little weird too... in this group I found:

A cow worshiper... that would get scare of even seeing the meet... A boy pollo... A girl that would laugh at everything I said, another one with a picture of her dog in her wallet, and someone that had a zoo at home, A girl that would barely talk and another one that would talk too much, guys that loved to work out in the bus, another ones that wanted to teach English to cute girls in Lima downtown...( Hi Dan and Greg!) and the list goes on...

This is the first time working with someone from a Christian Missionary Allegiance church. Actually, this is my first time stepping into a CMA church at all... Surprised?

They came and taught me a big lesson. That I was not alone. While they were here some paperwork I was expecting to work out was denied to me. Just like every time I get some paperwork it always ends up in a big mess for me...

But for the first time I was not alone in this... For the first time I didn't go alone through this. I left and there was no sadness in me, I wanted to cry, but I couldn't because I wasn't that sad. I felt someone was praying for me but I also felt that someone did really care.

And from the bottom of my heart I wanna thank them for that. Because you made me feel special and worthy. It was an honor meeting you...

And I don't get paid to do this......

thanks...

Here is one of those Kodak moments: Ladies and gentlemen: the cute picture of the trip. Please try not to cry...
This is a good one. We we told no to eat the lettuce, but Dan and I didn't care... Actually they tried to kill the translator, and the boy pollo...
Tour day!!!. I did the tour guide, and again I don't get paid for this... We had fun, I said whatever came to my mind and they actually believed it! Just kidding guys, the Catholic church thing was all true. And after the tour we took some pictures with an anti riot car, and got arrested for it... Pretend you are going to jail....
Later on we lost two... And after looking all over for them we found out they went to buy churros. It wasn't difficult to find them after we remember they were blondes. Like... there was no other ones around....

I just got yell at because someone just told me that the group that came before was from a CMA church too, and she says that CMA people are not weird at all. So I apologize for my mistake with the "first CMA group" thing... But still it was my first time in a CMA church... Hope Rebecca Moo is happy now....
