Sunday June 5

We attended the International English speaking church again today. Great music! The pastor introduced a young man, 21 years of age, named Emmanuel. He told Emmanuel's story. He and his brother had been trapped in the collapse of their three story apartment building during the quake. His brother talked with him almost non stop for what is estimated to be about 3 days. Then his brother died. Within the next day, Emmanuel was rescued and taken to a field hospital where he lost his leg. The pastor explained how members of the church who worked at the field hospital reached out to this young man and helped him through many dark days. (this is emotional and spiritual care at it's finest!) Now he invited Emmanuel to walk up and down the aisle with his new prosthetic leg, which he did, to applause and cheers!
