Today was my first full day here. I was pretty tired, though not sure if that was because I didn't sleep much Friday night (2 hours!) or because I didn't have time to make coffee this morning... probably both. But I made up for it with a three-hour nap this afternoon!
Sarah and I went to church this morning with a staff member named Jessica, her husband, and another volunteer named Monica. I was surprised at how much of the service I was able to understand; it was entirely in Spanish and I was doing pretty well, though I did have to concentrate quite hard. It was also fun to see how similar the service was to those I've been to in America, if a little more informal-- people were talking through much of the beginning, though there was dead silence when it came to the sermon.
Nothing much going on for the next couple of days, we have some articles to read but the staff here has a couple of days off because Tuesday is a national holiday.
