Again we came home around midnight. But yesterday because I had to lead the worship service, and after the service, we stood around and talked to different people at church, both Becky and I came home with sore backs and feet. We thought we would be done with church and supper by 9pm, and should be able to return to the apt. earlier than usual. But no. We didn't leave the church until 9pm; and then went to a restaurant near the church (again we had to walk) and had supper. By the time we got back to the apt., I was ready to hit the bed.
Emily led another youth meeting yesterday before the adult service. I helped her to lead the singing because she played the keyboard. All the meetings went well yesterday.
This afternoon (Monday, Dec. 22) we went to the market where many Chinese people go to buy fresh meat, fish, and vegetables, to distribute flyers to invite them to the Christmas program and Family workshop, Most people were open to talk to us and took our flyers; but a few wouldn't even take the flyers. After we're done with our work, we had lunch at 4pm. Today was probably the easiest day so far on our schedule. We actually got to see a little bit of Madrid city center this afternoon. After lunch, we went to visit a couple of sisters from church, one of whom owns a restaurant, who treated us supper. We came home before 10pm - first night since we got here when we're home at 10 :-)
Tomorrow is our first day of scheduled sightseeing day. Hooray!
