Week 3: New Discoveries -- May 15

--

Hey! Today was interesting as usual. First we went for a short jog and crazy workout at the park. (The other day I saw a real elliptical machine in another park, so they do exist, as opposed to the pendulums.) I could barely lift my arms afterwards...

We then had an awesome man time. It was kinda really funny. The pastor that was speaking (we listened to it from JW's ipod) about the differences between men vs women and how men are built to build bigger, better, faster, awesome things [it's biblical. lol. but the way he phrased it was funny].

We then went to do ministry work. Sundays there are no people... We did however meet three first year airport security majors (one of which who was 14 years old). We had lunch with them [The only time I actually had something from McDonalds].

We then had a couple free hours, which we used to do laundry, buy towels and buy bread/juice for communion.

We then had a 'family time'. This is equivalent to church while we are here in East Asia. TL, SVdM and MC shared their testimonies. We prayed. We had communion. Then because of our IBS on John 13 we washed each others feet. Litterally.

It was pretty funny. All the guys couldn't contain their laughter at their roommates tickling their toes. But seriously, Jesus came down from Heaven and humbled Himself to our level, He came down, felt all the temptaions we do, He even came down and washed His disciples feet the day before the ultimate sacrifice. From being in Heaven, with all things under His authourity down to scrubing dirty feet.

I tried imagining Jesus washing my feet, but it was too funny when DP was washing my feet. I tried again afterwards, I just can't think about it. How would I react?

Another thing that is awesome is that because Jesus died on the cross, TL, SVdM and MC are all alive right now. I'm so glad they are my brothers and sister and that I got to meet them [and spend seven weeks together with them]. I love them.

We also went to dinner, bubble tea, and we are just hanging out now. Tomorrow is the day of rest and we are probably going downtown for shopping and fun time.
