This past week was my 38th birthday (I know I don’t look it 🙂 and the people of the church had a surprise birthday party. Although I don’t like birthday parties that much and especially surprises, we had a good time. A good number of the people from the church prepared food and my favorite, grilled pork ribs. They all waited inside the church with the lights out until we got there and off course they all yelled “surprise” in Spanish of course. There was some really good food and it was really a special time that they thought enough to want to do something special for me. At the end we had the cake and I had to follow the tradition that they have here to “bite” the cake where they shove it into your face. Fun fun. We have some really great people in the church and I thank the Lord for each of them.
