What Ive been up to!

I am still alive and doing well, sorry the update has taken awhile. Pray that we can get the satellite fixed and running so that i will have access to the internet. I thought I would let you know that I have now started teaching 1st grade math and it is going very well. There are 16 kids but little resources. I have impervised and have learned to talk SLOWER and use less words because they just don't understand. I am also coaching *tutoring* 3 kids MWF and that is going pretty good. They have only been at the village for a couple of months and came knowing no english and no luganda and they had never been to school. So we are starting with basics but they are very smart and love learning so they are picking up on things quickly. In the afternoons I go up to the girls school and help with prep work that teachers need for their classrooms or with the girls projects. It has been alot of fun and I have learned alot of things. I have been to see the source of the Nile and went to a mexican food place and it was surprisingly good. I have learned to eat the Ugandan food or at least fake it in front of the kids. However you can get pretty much anything so I am able to eat at the house if I am not full. So I am not wasting away! Something I read recently that you should all think about..'The difference between an ordinary Christian and a deeply committed one is that the ordinary Christian gets emotional, while the deeply committed Christian gets involved.' If you aren't involved someway just think about what you can do to get involved! Hope all is well for you all and let me know how you are doing!!
