Rob is not feeling well, so this is Josh B writing to you again. The elder's meeting went very well. They all voiced their support for Josh P during this exciting time. Rob got to share how the elder's in our church functioned and the support that they give the church. The dialog was open and heartfelt.
The next day we started our morning by going to the open market. It was cold and raining, but the market was covered. It was a huge farmer's market. Vegetables and fruit were piled high. Everything at the market was organic. The food was beautiful and inexpensive compared to home. It was a fun experience. After that, we went to the home where Enrique and Norma are staying. Their family prepared a fantastic lunch for us. It was an amazing meal with an avocado and crab salad, a seafood soup, and salmon with potatoes and peas. After we ate, we all gathered around and sang karaoke with the family. We left there completely stuffed to a dinner celebrating the 18th anniversary of the church. The gym was full with church members and their families for the celebration. This was the night that the elder's officially introduced Josh as the pastor and prayed over him. It was so cold inside the building, but that did not stop the significance of the evening.
