Day 3

This afternoon we went to a huge sports complex in our area of Mexico City.  A few of us went and talked with 3 guys for about an hour.  We went and sat there, and talked to them mostly just about life.  It was awesome, they were so interested because we’re foreigners, and they just kept asking us question after question.
Later on in the afternoon, 4 of us found a soccer team practicing, and were able to play a pickup game with them… it was so much fun to use sports in our ministry, it was the first time we really got the chance to.  At the end of it, they invited us back to play on their team, and come out and practice with them every week… Dad, you would love the soccer here, you could just go and play with anyone whenever.

So in the evening we went into the square by our church, and were going to play football there with the kids that hang out there.  The girls on my team were just hanging out by them playing football and a girl came up to us... I"m pretty certain we're the first white people she's ever seen.  She acted like we were celebrities, it was so funny.  She took pictures with us, and just kept on giggling because she was so excited to see us, it was so funny.  But we ended up getting her to agree to come to church with us tomorrow, which is really exciting, even if it was just because she was so excited to see it, it works.
