On Saturday nights I go to the Jovenes group (young people - yes am still young).... and tonight was no different, was glad to go because had been in my house alone all day with the dog and was going a wee bit mad talking to him and getting no response back.
Jovenes is usually fun but tonight there was an added aspect of fun - there were no lights. We sat down to start and all of a sudden the lights went out. And unlike back home no one went to find out why or to try and flick the trip switch or whatever it is called, we just got the cellphones out to light the place and carried on.
One of the first things we did tonight was split into teams of two, tie are legs together and hop down the church in a race.,.... now these kind of races can be dangerous with lights on, but with the lights off and chairs all in the way I was scared that my next doctors visit would be because of a broken arm or leg, but no worries I survived without a breakage as did everyone else.
The aim of this game was to help each other, lean on each other to get from one place to another and I think the fact there was no lights added to this need as not only one where we tied to each other but we needed each other to help see. Just like we need to lean on God and have him show us the way.
The rest of the night was spent listening to Airyn do a bible study whilst walking around holding a cellphone to her head so we could see her and she could see us - it amused me. We spent an hour and a half in darkness - the lights never came on the entire time we were there.
I know its not really exciting but it interested me and amused me and I just thought would share it with you guys. No pictures sorry of the darkness to follow sorry, but close your eyes and you can be there too in the darkness!!
