El Picacho

Well last weekend, on Friday I went to the market and bought some oranges and mini-bananas. On Saturday, I went with some of the girls to the huge Jesus statue on top of one of the largest mountains in Tegucigalpa. It will a really cool spot overlooking the whole city, I’ll post some pictures of it on here. Jesus is really big….I mean the statue of course. The true Jesus is bigger than big. The statue was very large and Jesus has his hands out like he’s preaching to people, but then his feet are in the position like he is being crucified. And both of his hands had the scars of the nails on them. So, it was a very interesting statue. We had a super-bowl party over at our house last Sunday, unfortunately most Hondurans don’t really care about American football. One of my friends, (Aben) came over to watched and was talking on the phone for a lot of the time. And in the 4th quarter, the most exciting part, he fell asleep!!! Right in front of the TV.

The past week was pretty normal and chill. This past weekend I went to the market again to get some more fruit, and on Saturday I went to a country club that we go to sometimes and listened to a Tim Keller Sermon, which I’m beginning to listen to much more. And I’m getting exciting about getting his new book that comes out in 2 days, unfortunately I won’t be able to get my hands on that until I get back to the States.

I’m still plowing through Desiring God, and it’s still really good although I have to go through it kinda slow. I’ve definitely been really convicted through that book and it’s been good to have some edifying material around me since I don’t get too much at church these days. The internet has been really nice for that reason.
