If you are still in Guate and if you get anywhere near Quiche, call Paulina at <br />52692548 or email her at "Paulina Yus" and tell her Miguel from Texas said to look her up.

Story:<br /><br />Rocael (from PLQ) was walking home from work one day and a really, really nice car drove up beside him and offered a ride. He hopped in. They were small-talking for a bit and the guy driving asked what Rocael did for a living ("I teach", etc, etc.) Rocael asked him what he worked as. The response: "Work? I don't work; I'm a pastor!"<br /><br />When he told me that, I almost vomited. In all honesty, I've seen my mom as much in the three years since she became a pastor as I would in a normal month before she went to seminary. The idea that being a pastor would be a "sit back on your well-fed haunches" job ANYwhere, much less a place with such dire need for the Church to stand with them is really repugnant.

It really does take a lot of practice to be gay, doesn't it? There are also some of us who are Christian who they would say are just not going about it in the right way and are also going to hell, so I'll see you down there. :) We can play cards. (And dance to some more Gaga.)<br /><br />In the meantime (and I hope it's a long meantime), paz hermano. Hope all is well.Korlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04618016647599841650noreply@blogger.com
