This past Friday night we had a prayer "vigil" at the BIble Home. We ended around 10pm, so it wasn't that much of a vigil, but I know I wouldn't have made it through the night and it was quite cold up there in San José de la Montaña. Really, my tank top, long sleeved t-shirt, other t-shirt, sweatshirt and scarf were not enough!!!! Anyway, this was the 5th vigil they have done at the Bible Home. The previous 4 were all in newly built or remodeled houses (there are 8 total, originally constructed in the early 1930s. With 10 kids plus a foster family you can imagine the wear and tear these houses get!!!) This year, the school, which was also several decades old, got quite the facelift! So, we had our vigil there. It was very well planned. A lot like a concert of prayer, if you know what that is. If not, it suffices to say it was kind of like an extended worship service with songs, some teaching, prayer, and worship dance by a few ladies. Oh yeah, and tamales and some yummy cakes and breads. It was a beautiful evening or worship and thanksgiving together! I'm looking forward to knowing the staff and kids at the Bible Home better!Have I mentioned yet how much I love my job and how fascinated I am by the ministry of Roblealto?
Blessings on the rest of your week!
