Gringo church
Every Sunday, typically, consists of attending a local Spanish speaking church, then coming back to our house and having what we lovingly call "gringo church". This started out in Honduras with just the three of us - Madison, Mike and myself. However, with the arrival of our new team mates, and other missionaries in the area that desire to hear The Word and sing praise and worship songs in our heart language, we were up to 20 people yesterday! This just goes to show how important it is to hear God's words in your own language, even if you understand another language.
