Futbol

Today I got to tryout for a soccer team. I met the coach and had a tryout for two hours.  It was intense but I did well and made the team.  After the tryout while we were waiting for my Mom, Ellen, to come get me because it was getting dark, he was talking to me about his church and about God(in Spanish of course).  He mentioned that he was Catholic and I told him that I was Episcopalian which has very similar services to Catholics except for that we have open communion.  He said no no we have communion for everyone too.  It's Jesus's table not ours.  Doors are open not closed.  Then he was telling me about how doors were open not closed to Gay and Lesbians too.  He kept saying 'no problema'.  There are some girls on this team that are Lesbian but 'no problema'.   He was a very nice guy and I loved that even though there was a language barrier, we were able to have a conversation about something so serious.  And I was very happy to hear that 'the doors are opened, not closed'.

Hoy yo tienia practicar futbol.  Yo conoci a el maustro de futbol y tenia una greca para dos horas.  El maestro fue hablar a mi sobre Dios y como en su iglesia, aceptan Gay y Lesbians. Creo que esta muy bien! Y tambien ahora estoy en el quipo.
