An Opportunity to be Salt and Light

We've had an interesting visitor the first two days we've been out here in the community. He is a
Quechua man who is here right now. He is some kind of helper to anthropologists and has this work
of trying to help the indigenous people keep their old customs, etc. He came over to our house to
basically try to convince Brad how wrong the Bible is. He also told Brad that he doesn't like Bible
believing Christians or Americans. When Brad told him that he is a Bible believing Christian, the
man was trying to nicely say that even so, we can work together. Brad wasn't sure what he wanted to
do together, though. The Quechua man knew some Portuguese so he was conversing in a mix of Spanish
and Portuguese with Brad because he assumed Brad was only Brazilian. Brad did tell him that I was
American, so I figure that is why he barely gave me the time of day when I would greet him or say
good-bye. ;)
