My Weekend

Here is blog #2 since my return. =)

This blog will relay my version of this weekend.

It was an amazing except for the part in which I had to leave early from a service and miss an early prayer time. But other than that, I repeat, it was amazing. Wow!

For weeks before I had been practicing with a combined worship team from all four churches. That in itself was a blast, because I got to hag out with friends from Los Encinos and El Centro like Madai, Vania, Luis Angel, Joel, Jesus, Juanito, and Cesar. But, nothing compared to the event itself.

On Friday, I went to school anxiously anticipating the evening ahead. Mark came home and drove me over to wait around jaja. I raise my glass to you, Mark, for your patience and brother-liness. However, at the time my voice was failing horribly and I was worried. I thought my solo would be butchered to pieces. I tried everything in my power to fix it. Prayer, Honey, water, not talking, vocal and physical exercises. But once I stepped onto the stage, I felt God beside me and it was all forgotten. I simply worshipped the best way I could and, apparently, it turned out acceptable. I especially enjoyed the song called “GeneraciĆ³n que Danza”.

In the middle of the service, I was obligated to slip out to attend Samantha’s QuinceƱera dinner. We had a late night of laughs and fun. In the morning, my father picked me up and I showered to go over again to the auditorium. (Yes, I showered =)) . At three forty, there was a great youth service in which Mark performed really well. We jumped and danced around a lot jeje.

I have to say I agree with Mark about Jesse Ochoa and Hugo Martinez. It seemed as if Jesse didn’t really preach from the Bible. I learned quite a bit from Hugo. However, I will say that both people made me laugh my butt off. =D

Saturday night was another great service and a “carrilloso” brother afterward. Jaja just kidding, Mark. I was talking with a friend afterward and he gave me a bunch of crap about it. Ni al caso jaja

I agree that Sunday did not disappoint at all. The service was superb and the “hang out” time afterward, too.

I really felt God this weekend and t was beautiful.


P.S. High school is going really well!!
