MORE ON “QUAKING” AND FRIDAY’S ACTIVITIES

Just before going to bed last night we were informed we could expect more “activity” through the night. We felt a tremor just after going to bed and did not feel the earthquake (rated a 4) this morning at 6 am. We’ve had enough of this earthquake stuff to last a life time!!

Well last night as soon as all of us girls put our heads on our pillows there was a tremor. Pastor Marilyn and Katie sat straight up and started praying and Dr. D popped his head in our room to make sure we felt it. After some teasing from Dr. D, I had to explain to Stacie why didn’t notice that it was a tremor. Sleeping on the floor on an air mattress, every time someone walks by my bed and or someone opens up the door the mattress shakes, so during the tremors it just felt to me like someone was walking across the room. However, the tremor made Pastor Marilyn, Stacie, and Katie feel uneasy and could not sleep. So they stayed up and made brownies. They eventually went to bed after watching tv in Spanish. We all woke up around 7am to get ready to go teach a salvation message to another school. We weren’t really sure if we were going to be able to go teach because of the earthquake and some schools were closed. We left the house around 8:15 and went to Escuela de Juan Manuel Galvez. There was only about 35 kids that were at the school about 30 of them raised their hands for salvation. It is amazing to be able to bring these children to the Lord but at the same time I am thankful I only have one more salvation message and then I am done and I can save my voice. After the school Claudia and Karen took us students to a bakery to have breakfast which was amazing. Then we went home and hung around the house and picked up the laundry that we had dropped off earlier. Then Claudia, Karen, their husbands, and a few others picked up us students to go swimming. We went to a natural pool it was so beautiful and you felt like you were in a jungle or hiking. It had about three different levels with small streams and waterfalls connecting them all together. We came home around 4:30pm and relaxed until 7:30pm. Now we just got finished eating a wonderful meal that Jessica and Claudia’s mom prepared for us and the other students are watching Hannah Montana. We are all so full.

Hello from the Hernandez Family!

We are listening to your "Blogs" on our computer. The blogs are fun to listen to. The Apple computer has a software that allows us to insert the text and then have a voice read it to us.

It's really interesting and funny to hear your stories. The blogs are very amusing to us, especially when they are being read with a somewhat electronic voice. Joshua and Valerie find it hilarious. We are praying for you guys and hoping you have much success!

See you soon!
Jaime, Leticia, Joshua & Valerie
