Quiet Sunday

On Sunday morning, we went with a group to the small church in Los Guido. The man who started the church, Pastor Gabriel, is the only pastor there, so he leads the services, including singing. During the first half of the service, a few people from our group shared their testimonies, as well as a man studying Spanish in Costa Rica. Then another missionary from the area gave a sermon. After a short break, a few more highschoolers from our group gave their testimony, and then the group leader gave a short sermon to end the service. After church, we headed to 2x1 Pizza for lunch, and then went back to the Villa to chill for a bit. A few people from the group went swimming, and I helped out with some dishes. In the afternoon, we headed out to do some souvenir shopping. We first stopped at a flea market that I went to with the soccer team, and then drove over to a street that had several actual stores. It reminded me a bit of the Wisconsin Dells. It is kind of fun to shop at the open markets, cause bartering is perfectly acceptable. Often you just have to act uninterested, or really be so, and they will lower the price. Next, we headed back to the Villa for dinner, and I helped out with some more dishes before Jose took us back to the House.
