A day with new a experience.
Today I learned about the Catolich church in Costa Rica. I don’t know if it is different from other Catholic churches in other countries but it was a very special evening.
Por la mañana mi madre mi dijo que iba a la iglesia en la noche. I don’t why, but I asked if I could join her together with Johanna, the other student from Denmark.
She said it would be nice if we joined her to the church in the evening.
Well shit happens, but it was a really a fun evening even though none of us understod pretty much of it. In Denmark you only stand a few times for short period of time during the lecture, but in the catolich church you stand for almost half the time. It was quite an excercise, sit, stand, kneel and so on. I think I need to go to the gym before being a chatolic.
The service takes around 1½ to 2 hours normally but today it was a full 2 hours service in the church. Maria, mi madre en Costa Rica told me that it was due to the confirmation of the kids.
One thing the Danish Church could learn from the catolich Church is: songs and music are really good, after a few lines in Spanish you are able to join in and sing along. Guitars and fast tunes instead of the slow tunes played by the organ in the Danish church.
Hasta luego. Pura vida.
Det ender da med du bliver kirkegænger 😉
