Sunday, day of rest
Today we had the opportunity to visit Pastor Eric's church just down the road in Succotz. We left a little later than planned and walked about 10 minutes to the church. The service was so moving. Everyone was so welcoming to us. The music was mostly in Spanish, but we sang along in English. There was so much passion and sincerity in everyone that was there to worship God. We all serve one God. That was a very powerful truth that I am not reminded of often in the States. Later after the service was over, some of the members graciously offered to take some students back home with them. Around 2 pm the group went to Xunantunich, a Mayan ruins cite—about a 15 minute walk from our campgrounds. I opted out because I was feeling very tired and needed to rest—it is Sunday after all lol :)
