meeting people
ok so i have begun to meet lots of people, talking to everyone i see. the first person i met on the bus i actually saw again which was so weird because the city is huge. we were out walking downtown with housesister, lola, and i saw two people i knew (one of my professors and this guy from the bus). lola was shocked that in a city so huge that i was already running into people. also, yesterday i was sitting at the bus stop (after a huge series of errors with the busses) and i sat down to wait for the right bus to my house. when i sat down there was a lady sitting there that didn't say hi or anything (that's common here, you don't have to say hello to everyone you see) but then after about a minute, she said "hola hermana" hello sister for all of you who don't know. she asked if i was a christian because of the christian fish on my bracelet. when i told her yes she started crying, and we began to talk for the next hour, missing three busses that we both needed. she told we where a church is, because let's just say that protestant churches are rare. i think that my friends and i are going to go on thursday or on saturday. it was amazing to visit with her and i even read to her a passage that she gave me to read. we sat there, both amazed and encouraged by God's power. anyway, hope you are all wonderful. class today was good. the students that hilda and i have are great. type more soon.
and dad, i'm not meeting EVERYONE in one day, but i figure i can give it my best shot.
love you all!!

ok, this is Lindsey by the way. when i first read all the comments i thought it was all in Spanish because Kate is in Spain and that makes sense but i was impressed b/c i knew not everyone speaks spanish. then, i realized IM in Spain and it just loaded in Spanish b/c that makes sense here. haha. Kate you have to tell everyone about pushing the car. good story.
