Well yesterday we woke up and went to Rhoda's English class while she was in South Africa for the day. We read some of the Zacheus passages in English and then in Portuguese. The
students would help us with our pronunciation and we would do the same for them. Then
we learned some basic words in Portuguese and we taught them in English. They are all
so nice and very helpful. Then when we were finished we went back to the Restrick's house
and did some tasks for Rhoda. We put some Tylenol stuff in individual packets and then we labeled them. She is going to take these with her when she goes up north.
Then we made some packets with these worm pills that smelled awful. I cannot believe that Rhoda does all this on her own. She also helps with the sponsorship program in Maputo, so we helped address letters and envelopes for the children. It was neat to actually help her with something since she has done so much for us. Then afterward we rested for a bit and then ate some stew that Rhoda left in the crock pot for us. We worked on some songs for church and then watched Santa Claus 2. haha. Today we were supposed to go with one of the pastors to see a new church plantation (we don't know exactly all that was supposed to be involved) but it rained last night and the pastor told Dave that he did not want Americans to see the church when it could be muddy. So that is kinda frustrating, but it is ok. This morning we went to a chapel service on campus. They had a farewell for one of the secretarys and also a baby dedication. They also introduced us and welcomed us to the campus.

We are going to run errands with Dave this afternoon. Tomorrow we're supposed to be cleaning a church, who knows what all this means. We never know. haha Thank you for your prayers. I definitely have appreciated all the encouragement and comments that I have been given. They have definitely been so helpful. Even though we might not know what our plans are, I am so thankful that I have the assurance that God knows exactly what He has in store for us. Thank you all for generous support for me. I am sooo thankful for you!! Have a great day, I will write soon!
