We had a team from Texas here that is going to be opening a new orphanage about an hour from Faith Home. Sunday we went to a local church with them. They have a relationship with this church (not sure how) and so the church agreed to meet on Sunday morning for them. Normally they meet at night. Which means the building is designed for night meetings - not day time meetings. Which means the building is very hot during the day. So, it was about 100 degrees (not exaggerating) inside the metal roof building during the surface. By the time the service was over your clothes were very wet from all the sweat. During the service some of the church members went to the local grocery and bought a bunch of cold drinks which they passed out to all the gringos in attendance. The heat didn't seem to bother the church members. They were dancing, singing, and sweating without regard to the heat.
