Ministry!


Really short update, but we finally started ESL! We only had one student on Saturday, so most of us were in Guadalupe Park talking to people about GGP (our English church) and English classes. But on Sunday, we had another student, and my friend Lisa and I got to teach him! It's probably not nearly as cool for you as it was for me, but I was SO EXCITED to finally start ESL! His name is hard for gringos to pronounce, so we're calling him Nate (we always got Spanish names in class, so why not give our students English names?). He doesn't know very much English yet, but he was really excited to learn. We started talking about church and we invited him to GGP and he came! He didn't even want the Spanish translation through headphones! His desire to learn was a great reminder to me to be scared to use my Spanish out in public, even if that means stumbling over my words. It was so fun! I can't wait to go back this weekend!
