Day 18 - May 31 - Friday

Today was all about learning to have patience and trust in God. We got off to a late start this morning... or at least Heather and I did, haha! We were supposed to be picked up at 11:30, but our picker-upper forgot about us and consequently didn't arrive until 12:30. The only person still home with us was the children's nanny (who only speaks Spanish), and we couldn't get a hold of our leader, so Heather and I just had to trust that somehow God would work it out as we waited for that hour with no news. When we did get picked up, we went to downtown Madrid again, to the same shopping area that we wandered around last time. We stayed there until a little after 4pm, then we all went to a church which had yet another dilemma - a stage so small that one of our team members actually fell of of it during one of the dramas! God provided though, and that was our only incident. No one got hurt, despite the limited performance space! Hurray! The church provided dinner for us, then after a time of fellowship, we all came home to sleep.
