And so it begins...

We have arrived!  Marcos picked us up from the airport and drove us to the stadium. To start everything off we played in a staff scrimmage, which was a full 90 minutes.  I didn´t think we would be so tired the first day!
We got our tentative schedule for the next few weeks.  Looks like we´ll be helping the coaches a lot with their teams in the various sections of the city and helping around the stadium (final preparations for their turf field).  We will also be training with the CDUC´s select teams (u14, u16, and u20), with opportunities to share our our stories and testimonies.
Jarrett wins the prize for best spanish.  Jack gets second place, and Grant and I are tied for a distant third.  I do feel as though even in one day, I´ve learned a good amount of spanish (or maybe just how to nod and respond like I understand).  Anyway, all is well here. Learning the language and building relationships with the people around us!!!
My apologies if there are typos. I am writing on a spanish keyboard, on a spanish computer.
Grace and Peace,
Samuel
