I found something rare – I think…

What would be the least thing you would expect to find in Ciudad Obregon? Yes, you guessed correctly: Monks from India that are work in a missionary.

When talking to those two lovely gentlemen, they explained me that they have made an over 45 hour journey through the entire world to finally come to Obregon. Well actually, they live along an ethnic group called the: Primas. This is one of original inhabitants Sonora’s. And the town they come from is over 4 hours away. But they currently are attending a church congress.

We probably talked for good half an hour about everything that came into our mind. But something that he told me really made me smile and it reminded me on the problems I sometimes have in Mexico.

In the past, they asked people, if they would want to attend a holy mass. And the Primas always replied “Yes we will come”. Apparently when it was time for the mess no one showed up.

This just reminds me, on the time when I lend money to someone and he said over a period of 4 month: “tomorrow you get it. Don’t worry”.

Just in case you guys will ever read this.

Thanks John for taking your time to talk with me and Estefania. Sadly I don’t remember the name of his fellow mate. But of course a big thanks to you too.

Gracefully Thomas
