I guess one of the cool things about doing mission work is just talking and meeting as many people as you can. This guy is the owner of a restaurant in Camargo we ate at (great steaks) and he was really friendly and nice to us. We spoke to him for a while. It turns out his parents live in Zacatecas.
Juan tried to minister to him and his testimony usually involves how he got shot and survived. It didn't work as well this time since the man had gotten shot 18 times and survived. He showed us his scars and said that he will be in the Guinness Book of World Records next year for most gun shots survived. What a miracle. Thank God or else I wouldn't have been able to eat that awesome food. I love how restaurant owners always tell us if we don't like the food, its free. So far everytime they say that, the food is awesome.
The girls that worked in the restaurant also wanted to take pics with me and Jerry. Ths is going to be a common occurrence Jerry says in Jerez since we're Asian. This is true since the last couple of times I went to Jerez, a lot of girls wanted to take pics with Bert and Fred. Hopefully we'll meet up with the restaurant owner again someday. He is a living miracle and even said to us that if we ever don't have any money, his restaurant is our home too! We've met some amazing people on this journey.
