Sunday

Hello Everyone!
So Sunday I did get to go to church- the service was in English so that was great and it is not far at all from where I live. It's really neat to be able to worship with believers all around the world. I met some really nice people- this German woman named Pia who works in the red light district gave me her number and I would love to get together with her. And then after the service, a guy came in with a teapot and served everyone chai! Only in India... Then Vishal (my volunteer coordinator- it was his church) invited me to lunch and we went with all his friends (sort of like the young adult group) and two of the girls are sisters and they had everyone over to their house for a Bengali meal! We had this soup that was really good as long as you didn't put too much chili sauce in it, and then I had momos for the first time- they are so good! They are kind of like wontons stuffed with ground mutton or chicken mixed with onions and spices. They are yummy, but I may have ruined it by having homemade ones first! Anyway, the people were nice, but they all spoke Hindi and since that is their native language it is easier, so it's still difficult to communicate with anyone. But at least they CAN speak English. Anyway. Nothing interesting happened yesterday. Really. Nothing. So that's it for now...
