Wednesday

Blog 723
One of the things that is always interesting to me when I go to a new place is to find out where's north south east and west.  In Kenya it was easy because the first morning the sun peaked in our bedroom window as it came up early in the morning. One thing that is a little disorienting is the fact that the sun is in the north. We are located on the equator and that means in this time of year the sun is north of us. Can you picture the southside being the shady side of the building. Although I started this yesterday it is now Wednesday afternoon. Rains have been coming with a lot more regularity. We were very happy to have the top on the little white pick up coming into Ziwa today. I am sitting here on the balcony of the Bible college watching the rain come more and more heavy. Ann andI made the trip to Ziwa this morning make preparations for her class this afternoon. I was at the printer for about four hours straight. Then she and I collated things for the rest of the week and for next week. The lecture portion of the classes will end on Friday. Next week the students will have assignments which will include watching DVDs and filling out worksheets. There will also be assignments from this week that will be due the first part of next week. To talk here is all about there are only two days left out of this three week session. As I'm standing here outside the door of the classroom Gracie and Caleb are standing on the railing watching the rain. They have been loving watching the downpours that are typical here in Africa. Gladys will be leaving Saturday to go to her job which is a different part of Kenya.  We are going to be eating at Silas's brothers tonight.  Happily that will give Gladys a break from cooking. Silas decided to stay home and take some time to be with his wife this afternoon.  That is just a quick update from Kenya for today. We thank God that he is answering your prayers and that all is well here. Until
next time. Art
