Leaving it Behind

Today we went out with our small groups and passed out fliers to advertise a carnival we're going to have in a couple weeks. I went out with four girls around an apartment complex and knocked on doors. It reminded me a lot of Mexico two years ago, when we'd go out and invite people to our service each night.

Por favor venga a un servesa anoche

"Shoot, we just invited them to beer last night."

No, I didn't do that, but one girl in our group did. It was supposed to be sevicio, not servesa. At least they tried. There weren't any foul ups like that today though. One girl in our group spoke spanish fluently, so if we ran across a language barrier we were still able to invite the people to the carnival. A lot of people seemed really interested just in that complex. There were other groups all spread out around the area (hundreds of people) so I'm sure we'll have quite a crowd when the date comes around.
