May 17: "Experiencing Life at the Margins."

The ideas in this article that surprised me were:
"You never discover how racist you are until you have the opportunity to be a racist."
"Africa's crisis is not poverty, it's not AIDS. Africa's crisis is confidence."
"God so loved the world- how dare we say we identify with him in that love if we don't go there, if we don;t choose the margins."

Idea that will apply:
The article stated how we are to go and spend time with the people, with no agenda but just to be with them. This will apply to us because thats what we are going to do down in Mancora, just spend time with the people, lovng them and serving them.

Idea that don't apply:
The idea of racism will not apply to us because we come from a latin country so we are used to this type of community.
