Day 3

Amazingly enough, the power here has held out here very well!

One highlight for today was our preparation for our care point on Wednesday.  We made our examples and prepped the materials for the Armor of God. (We are have the children make/decorate foam-core swords, card-stock breastplates, foam shoes, paper hats, and a fabric belt.)  We ended up with paper and scraps everywhere!  But Assed, the director here, said it was great! He was quite impressed with our work and said the kids will be very excited to do all of these crafts and lessons. I will definitely post pictures of this!

Turns out we will be tutoring the boys tomorrow.  Like I said before, in Africa, schedules are not strictly adhered to.  We went over the boys' houses (or clusters as they are called), but many were in school and others were doing their chores.  Today there was also a long prayer meeting while much of the staff fasted (I cannot due to my health) and the Board of Directors was here so we had a dinner with everyone outside.
