Uruguay!

So Uruguay was SO much fun!! At first, I wasn't too thrilled because we spent 2 of our 5 hours in a restaurant waiting for food! But we eventually got to get out, shop, (I got a really cute Uruguay trinket!), and take pictures in the beautiful town of Colonia! But the best part was, we rented mopeds for an hour and drove them around the small town!! It was SO much fun!! It went up to 50 km/hr!! The good news is, I didn't get hurt, but the bad news is, two of the guys we were with, did!! One guy almost ran into two of the girls on their moped and so he turned really fast and tipped over!! He didn't get hurt though! However, the other guy accidentally went the wrong way on a one way street (they have many of those, and it's hard to tell which way they go until you see a car!) and he ended up finding himself driving toward a moving car coming straight for him! He tried to brake, but he hit the accelerator at the same time, and flew over the handle bars, landing 20 feet from the car who slammed on its brakes! He was bleeding pretty badly from his hands and knees, but he kept riding after that! The REALLY bad news is that both of them have to pay $200 US each for the damage!

Well, I guess the main thing that happened there, concerning me, is that I lost my wallet! It had about $30 US in it and my debit card! I'm 99% sure I left it in the moped rental shop, so I emailed them right when we got back, but they haven't responded yet! Thankfully, my parents were able to cancel my debit card from the US, since they wouldn't let me do it from here! Please pray that the moped rental company will email me back with good news!

Tonight, we had Vida Estudiantil (Argentina's Campus Crusade for Christ) and it was great! I couldn't understand all of what the speaker said, but I got the main idea! The speaker spoke on the subject for this week, "Why do bad things happen?". People had a lot of questions and, from what I heard from the students afterwards, he gave really clear answers! He is a Bible professor at a local university! Also, we had English club to help the students with their English, and I think they learned a lot!

Please pray for the outreach tomorrow from 12-2 pm! The boys will play soccer and the girls will drink mate (a lot like tea...VERY common here)! Pray that God will give us the opportunity to get into spiritual conversations with them!

Also, it's getting REALLY cold here and many people, including me, are starting to get sick! Please pray that we will get to feeling better!

PRAISE! So far, three people have accepted Christ on the college campuses where we having be witnessing! I had the opportunity to share the Gospel with 4 more girls today, so please pray for them, that they will keep looking over the tract (KGP booklet) I left with them and that they will respond to my emails and ask questions! 

Again, I can't thank you enough for your faithful prayers! We couldn't do this without you!
