So many new things . . . people, places, food, experiences . . . did I mention people? The people of Barranquilla, Colombia are so gracious, warm, and loving . . . they have made the “gringas” feel completely welcome. They are so very warm and thrilled to see us. From translators to “nationals” (people from the local area that accompany us as do street evangelism) to the people of the area, they are genuinely happy to see us and listen to the gospel. Children in the barrios are absolutely thrilled to see us . . . they provide the best hugs, the sweetest smiles, and are so quick to show their gratitude. This experience has been incredible so far . . .
My heartbeat rests with women’s small groups and yesterday’s was no exception. Lord, I pray that you would take all that we have completed and will complete here in Barranquilla and bless the families that were presented with the gospel and are now spreading the Word.
