We went to Pinos Reales, a camp outside of Madrid, last weekend for campamento. There were almost 40 people total including us and the team. We had a blast all weekend together. The chicas were almost victorious in the 4th annual Flamenco Futbal game, we all played some crazy games and made hilarious sketches. Hernan gave the talks all weekend on the subject of Faith, Hope and Love. (1 Corinth 13:13 "And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.") The worship was amazing and our time there is going to keep bringing up difficult questions from the students. Please continue to pray for those who were on the campamento- that they will not be afraid to ask those questions or to seek after the answers. Please also pray for us that we can continue to speak into their lives during the rest of our time here and that lives will be changed from what we have done.

Campamento

Next weekend (the 13th through 15th) we leave for Campamento! For this retreat, we will be heading to Pinos Reales, a camp near Madrid, to spend the weekend with the students. There will be games, talks, skits and of course annual Flamenco Futbal tournament. This is where the boys have to play soccer while hopping one on foot, but the girls get to play normal. We already have about 20 students signed up to go with us! 


Please pray for us as we are preparing for and promoting this retreat. We want to bring as many students as possible so that we may bring them into a closer encounter with God. Please also pray for Hernan as he is preparing to speak for the weekend. And of course for the students, that they will want to come and bring open hearts and minds. 


Cold Comedor

We are about to leave for our second cold outreach at the cafeterias. We are going to try and meet some new students to bring into the ministry. Please pray for the students we will be meeting today and that they will be interested in forming relationships with us!
