Naucalpan, my first two weeks...

Well, I´ve been in Naucalpan now for almost two full weeks and I can´t believe it. I´m living with a 23 year old guy named Mario who is really becoming a good friend and housemate. I don´t have any pictures yet, but I´ll remedy that soon.

I´ve been teaching guitar and bass (which has been kinda hard because in Spanish they use do-re-mi-fa-sol-la-si instead of c-d-e-f-g-a-b), and I´m gonna be teaching English soon which will be really challenging but cool too I think. I go to the church Tuesday nights for prayer, Thursday nights for bible study, Sunday mornings for church, and whenever they have youth group which they call club RECH. There´s only been one so far, but it was a lot of fun. Besides that I run a lot of errands to help with the church like printing and distributing propaganda for the events, taking photos and video, etc. I also went along with pastor Fernando to a radio station in Mexico City yesterday where I videotaped a radio show (of which he was a guest), so that was pretty sweet.

On the weekends I hang out with this group of guys (Mario and his friends) that all pack into Mario´s little volkswagon jetta to cruise around town, eat, play soccer, eat, watch movies, eat, etc. All in all, I don´t think I could have asked for a better placement with SALT. I´m really happy with where I am, what I´m doing, and the people that are here to support me. Hope things are great where you are! Let me know what´s up! Peace.
