    In case I don’t get back to the internet before then.........HAPPY EASTER everyone!! I can’t quite believe the time is almost gone!
    Last weekend, we were invited out for supper. The home was so beautiful and the food must have taken all day to prepare! It was a wonderful evening that I will long remember. Such generosity.......it was a gift, really.
    On Sunday, we went out of the city to the ‘goat church’. Raha told them that we call them that! They thought it was hilarious!  This time we came home with a chicken and some bananas in the trunk. They now have 500 people, and have to hold their Easter service outside because there is no room! What a great problem, don’t you think?
    After class on Monday morning, some of my class took me to the grocery store and told me to get whatever I wanted! Generous, generous people! They are so gracious, how does one say ‘thanks’??
    So, what’s left to do........let’s see.......2 more Swahili classes, Wednesday, and Friday, teach Thursday morning, preach Thursday evening, Friday evening (not sure yet?), exam Saturday morning, preach Sunday, and try to choke through a farewell, then grad on Tuesday, and off on Wednesday! I think there will be some visiting on Saturday with orphan children and others.........?

  3. Hi Doreen. I have been at work for 2 weeks and my internet was down too:( Home now and caught up on your blogs...you will truly choke back tears on your leaving - I can hear it in your writing. What a blessing you have been there and also received I am sure. My internet was down, but my connection to the Lord was not and so I continued to bring you before the Lord, even though I couldn't connect with you! Miss you and look forward to you coming home. Carol
