Thursday Night

School was much better today. Then we walked 10 minutes further today to Bello Horizante. It is smaller and much more impoverished. There were about 12 houses in the village. We got there and did door-to-door. It was really awkward. I hate door-to-door. Jesus wouldn't have done that. Jose brought us lunch from Maypuco. We ate Jungle Rat.
Then we played with the kids-- volleyball and soccer. The women here are so good at volleyball. We had a really good VBS. Then more soccer.

We had another service tonight. They were really unresponsive. It is so awkward still. At the service there are always three teenage girls who do the same dance during the music. They have expressionless faces and they seem really bored while dancing. Thankfully, in Bello Horizante, there is a wonderful little boy with Downs Syndrome. He is probably 7 or maybe younger. During the service, he was shaking everything he had. It was kind of raunchy...but absolutely hilarious....because he was so little. He was very talented, and made the service much more enjoyable.

We walked 45 minutes home, then I had night watch right away (11-midnight). Now I am journaling....bed soon.
