Hello. The internet has been down at the university (where we get access), so these posts may be out of order.
Today (Sunday) is a beautiful day - sunny and clear, with a slight breeze - the perfect day for rest. The weather has been getting progressively nicer with each day.
In the morning, we went to the local church. The doors lead into a huge room (like an auditorium) with hard wooden benches that radiate from the pulpit located in front of the church. In the hour or so that we were there, we heard various choirs. None of us understood the words, but that was definitely not necessary to appreciate and enjoy the singing. We also introduced ourselves to the congregation at some point.
We left before the sermon, which we would not have been able to understand, and came back home to listen to a recording of one of Tim Keller's sermons. He spoke about how our approach to life's difficulties is determined by what we focus on.
The afternoon was spent in various ways. Some went to the hospital with the Albertsons for spiritual rounds, some went to town, some went to a soccer game down the hill, and some just spent the time relaxing.
