Sunday - Church and Antigua

Sunday was a really full day for our team.  It started out with us going to a "mega church" here in Guatemala city.  This church is huge, as it seats 12,000 people.  The worship was wonderful, and the songs were very familiar.  Some of us sang along in English, others decided to try it out in Spanish.  Either way, we were enjoying the experience very much.  Wow.... it was really awesome!

After church we went out for a great lunch! We had pizza, pasta, salads, and baked goods.... YUM!  This was just a pit stop to refuel for our adventures into Antigua.  Antigua is an old town, 500 years old, actually, and it is BEAUTIFUL.  We visited a monastery that was built in the 1500s, and we saw some really old ruins in this town.  The architecture was so interesting.  There were many indigenous people living and working in this town too.  We had some free time, so we wandered around and got the chance to buy a few souvenirs.

When we get home, ask us about all the details :)  We each had some interesting experiences, for sure!

We are attaching some some pics of our day...  Enjoy!
