Before Esther Aguilar began her Bolivian adventure, she asked God for one thing: to teach her in a deeper sense the commandment where Jesus says, \u201cYou must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind. (\u2026) A second is equally important: Love your neighbor as yourself (Matthew 22 37-39).\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although she had grown up hearing this commonly used verse, Esther Aguilar was ready to be challenged to understand what it meant to love others from a different culture and to meet Jesus in a new part of the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through YAMEN<\/a> (Young Anabaptist Mennonite Exchange Network), a joint service program through Mennonite Central Committee and Mennonite World Conference, God placed her in Samuelito, a daycare for children in Bolivia.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before working at Samuelito, Esther Aguilar had never worked with children before. She recalls those first days as an education and healthcare assistant, trying to navigate children\u2019s screams coming from multiple directions and learning how to change a diaper for the first time. \u201cI remember the first time putting it on backwards!\u201d But instead of shutting down, she remembered the verse she was asking to be transformed by. She thought, \u201cHow should I react better in this moment and what can I do about it?\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although Esther Aguilar came from Honduras, another Spanish speaking-country, she still found that adapting her language was key in relating and caring for vulnerable children.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re all Latinos-as and share cultural things at a minimum level,\u201d she says. \u201cBut I\u2019ve had to adapt my language even here. I\u2019ve had to adapt my way of speaking to children of different ages. Like different ways to call their attention or to correct their speech. Understanding and communicating with each child differently is a way of empathizing with them.\u201d  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During her time with YAMEN (August 2022 to July 2023), Esther Aguilar learned to love each child as an individual. It was a test of patience, but she strove to create a safe space where they could freely express their range of emotions within a day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another way she practiced \u2018loving thy neighbour\u2019 was by becoming part of the fabric of a new Mennonite church community, Iglesia Evang\u00e9lica Menonita Boliviana \u2013 Sinai.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At first, she was afraid to get involved with a new church. She remembers feeling out of her comfort zone and vulnerable to attend church camps by herself for the first time. But looking back, she feels joy about this part of her experience because it\u2019s taught her that the kingdom of God reaches far past her home church, Iglesia Evang\u00e9lica Menonita Santa Rosa de Copan, in Honduras.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Esther Aguilar\u2019s new workplace, home and church community were avenues of deeper cultural connection and a place to practice living out the day-to-day messiness of loving her new neighbours, children\u2019s screams and all.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhen I began to embrace this culture, I started to feel a bit more ownership and began to understand what it\u2019s like in other people\u2019s shoes in the context of Bolivia,\u201d she says.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI have learned to love the Lord in another church, in a different home and have learned to love myself.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
