Day 6 - Elementary Schools, Mall, and Downpour

On our way to an elementary school, Esther showed us her best impersonation of the girl from The Ring - I've gotta say it was quite believable. 0_0

At the school, we were greeted by a medley of praise songs, sung by this lovely all-girl choir.

We visited this school last year, and the kids were so thankful that we returned to bring them even more gifts (i.e. toiletries, clothing, toys, and makeup accessories for the girls). They definitely helped make us feel welcomed, especially with the hand-made poster that they prepared for us:

For lunch we stopped by a mall's food court, and just as we were about to leave, an idea struck our head pastor: "Why not present our skits smack-dab in the center of everyone who's shopping today?" I gotta tell ya, those ideas that he comes up with... and so, we busted out By the Power of Your Love and Redeemer. The radio DJ who was set up in that same vicinity even lent us his stereo equipment and made a broadcast concerning who we were and what we were doing. Insane, I tell ya!

Afterwards, we went to another grammar school, only this one was a Christian school. The kids were noisy, as always, but heartwarming, nonetheless.

At night, we were going to set up camp at Pastor José Guerrero's church in the northwest city of Santa Ana when the craziest of rainshowers came down on us. We were soaked!

Thankfully, they managed to finish off the service indoors, and many more managed to pray the Sinner's Prayer.
