Blankets and Parachutes

Monday is the first day of the conference we´ve come to serve at. Our first dramas. Pete has decided we will start with an easy one - a powerpoint show with two people reading about an encounter between a mission visitor and a local, and a pink blanket. However a computer failure loses us the powerpoint, and we have to start unexpectedly with Jason and Samantha´s humourous piece about a first parachute jump. Their drama debut. It goes perfectly and is well received. During the morning Pete puts a new powerpoint together and we do it in the afternoon.

The speaker today is Galo Vasquez; he is Ecuadorian and has done mission work in twelve cities in eleven countries. One of these was Barrie, Ontario, where he married his Canadian wife. He is inspiring about the potential for the evangelical church in Central America. He is so knowledgeable about the area, and has seen so many huge things happen here.
