wine and the wineskins
Our graduation was last night.
A man gave a word about Matthew 9, about wine and the wineskins.
That new wine must be poured into new wineskins.
We must be transformed that the He can fill us.
If not, we will break, we will not be able to do our job, what we were intended for.

Jenny, I have been drinking your coffee and thinking of you. Colombian coffee is the best. And someday I wan´t to drink it IN Colombia with you. I miss you so much. I miss your stories, your wisdom, and your calming presence. I hope God is moving in your life right now and can´t wait to hear stories when we both get back to Pichilemu. Stay strong woman.

The day after my birthday we went to a town out in the country to spend time sharing with the community and that evening we had a service with dramas, preachings, etc. The family served us lunch and we spent time talking with them and their neighbors.

On May first we took the bus downtown for some May Day shinanigans.

This past weekend I went with a couple of my team members to two communities about four hours from Santa Cruz. We worked with the kids and youth there, and on the way back down stopped in a town whose name means “a rest in the high places”. It was gorgeous.

julz. remember when you we were roomates, and you gave me these pair of shorts one of the last days before you left to go back to Minnesota? I still have them. :) Have I told you that you were the most chill roomate ever? I miss living with you.
