Day 5 (Wednesday)

Happy Wednesday! Today was another amazing day in experiencing new things. A recurring theme so far of this trip is that each day offers a new perspective. Anyways, today started off rather the same as yesterday. We woke up and went to The Well at 10AM to spend more time with the girls. We played a bunch of games again, both board games and active games and it was soothing to continue spending quality time with them. Today, we spent much more time with them since we didn't leave to go to the movies as we did yesterday. Still, we brought COCO to watch with the girls at it was enjoyable for everyone! (very emotional for some people)...

At around 6:30 PM, we said our goodbyes and headed off the another part of the city for a worship/prayer night called "Upper Room", which was started by Benny & Janice. Here, we saw some old faces that we saw on Sunday at the church service. The night composed of many times of prayer as well as worship! You can see more of my thoughts about it in the reflection below...

For dinner, we went to the famous "Don Pedro" which is another amazing taco place! We had their al pastor and bistec tacos and once again had an amazing time of food and fellowship with our team and the family. This place definitely had the better al pastor for those who love pork! Anyways, that's all for tonight! 

Reflection:

The highlight of today was "Upper Room". It was a good time of reflection and just being able to focus on myself tonight. There was a great vibe that filled the place and even though all the worship was in Spanish, there was a different level of praise going on and it was easy to feel God's presence filling the place. There weren't any crazy instruments or effects but just the voices and outcries made the experience very touching and memorable.
