present just two of them, maybe the ones that I have more in my heart, one in South America and the other in Africa.
     On 1996 we were in Guadalajara, Mexico and we wanted to reach the jail there, so we made a contact and they took us to a rehabilitation center for prisoners. The center was a huge and fancy mansion confiscated by the authorities from a famous Mexican drug dealer. They took us to what used to be the big bathroom of the house, because it was dark enough there for our slide presentation of the book. The room was a little bit demolished and marked up and they brought in about thirty prisoners. The environment wasn't the best, they showed that they were there without wanting to be there, making jokes like school kids.
    We were nervous, the lights of the room were turned off and the strong white light of the projector was there in front of all of us on a white wall. Everybody could see a name scratched in the wall, it was the name of the famous drug dealer owner of the house, there was a silence and I said: " I want to thank, (I named the dealer), that made this possible". Everybody laughed and the mood changed, we got relaxed and they watched the presentation in complete silence and when we finished I will never forget the eyes of one of the prisoners that came to me and said: "This is the first time that I can imagine how heaven must be". I was so touched, I still keep a picture of that presentation inside my UBook as a spiritual treasure.
     The next story was in Nairobi, Kenya, the year 2000. We arrived in this city and a box of twenty (Urantia) books were supposed to be waiting for us there, cause we were out of them. Well, for our surprise and patience the box wasn't there and a sort of battle of two weeks begun. This situation gave us a chance to live and see how bureaucracy and corruption work together. Finally, after two weeks of patience practice and a lot of money we got our books. But as everything is cause of something, the time in Nairobi gave us the chance for great things. Norman made good friends in the National library with the director, his secretary and a bunch of other people there, who were anxious as we were awaiting the arrival of the books.
     I, as a music lover, am always interested in the music of the places, and it took me nothing to find out that just two blocks away from our small hotel was the National Theatre and Cultural Center of Nairobi. It was great. I took some intensive drum lessons and became friends with a group of thirteen young members of a drumming group call, " The Talking Drums", well known in Nairobi. I spent a lot of time with them, telling them about the book and our reason we were there. The crazy thing was that on our expected day of departure, the box of books arrived and we got a couple of hours to do something with them. Norman took a taxi with half of the books to the library and the celebration there was great. I carried the other half to the theatre and all these kids waiting for their books were something so emotional to me, it was like an Urantia party in the middle of the African continent. That day will be forever in my heart.
     To share it may be the most precious tool to serve God. So I want to thank all the ones who have helped us in our service and thank God for giving us the opportunity to serve.
