Out And About

Being a missionary with three kids and a live-in teacher, one of my pet gripes is that I don't get out enough. But, in this season of life, that's just the way it is. However, last week, one of our dear friends who works in our home stayed the night with the kids and Hannah while Josh and I had an overnight excursion to some of the different villages that the Bible Teachers are doing outreaches in.

It was soooooo refreshing and so good to see God working in the hearts of people all over this valley.

Here are a few pics:

This little 'building', or shelter, was built in between two villages and the people being taught in both of those villages now come and worship together. My favorite part about visiting this place was their excitement over listening to the teaching and 'Japeth', the teenager who writes his own songs and sings them for everybody!

Josh and Rudil meeting with a couple of school teachers to discuss how we can help them. They are teachers in a school that our lady Bible Teachers have just started teaching in this year.

Ila and Sundi posing for the camera. Their grandpa is the main teacher in one of the villages we visited and their grandma is one of the most hospitable ladies I've ever met. She regularly feeds and houses the 5 or 6 Bible Teachers that pass through there every week.

Glad you got a chance to take a break from motherhood. Sounds like an encouraging trek around the mountain!

The next time you're in our neighborhood, we'll watch your kids so you and Josh can get out for an evening.
