veinticinco- chocolate cake

 Yesterday, Ana texted me that we were going to be celebrating two friends' birthday that night with a cake that she made. I met Ana at the bible study I went to last week.

 Last night, we read from Romans and discussed more good stuff about faith in Jesus Christ. At the end, we brought out the chocolate cake and sang Feliz Cumpleaños, completely surprising Sebas, whose birthday is Thursday. We ate some cake and had fun conversations. We got together and sang worship songs while Fernando played the piano. It was incredibly beautiful, singing praises to our savior along with music. We even improvised with harmonies. My new friends have amazing voices! 

 I'm thankful for chocolate cake and the people who shared it. I love how they welcomed me into the family and let me sing and eat cake with them. It's so sweet, literally and figuratively.

 Kthnxbai!
