Blessings!

Busy times. Last week was a week of preparation. For the IWU team and for the big Bazaar at school. The team arrived safely on Friday evening, and now Leeann and I have five more housemates ;) The team will be here for three weeks and I look forward to working with them! H.I.S. held their Bazaar this weekend, where locals and people from school set up booths and sell basically anything. It was fun, a lot of work...but of course some good shopping!! I am pretty sure I could start a good shopping ministry here :) It may sound funny, but I have been so blessed by the people I come across while shopping or just browsing. I know that by buying a little beaded necklace can help provide for a family and I am more than willing to support the local shop owners and artists here ;) Today I came across a random blessing. Last week I had been at a small craft store...shopping of course...and had set my house keys on the counter. Not noticing until today that they were missing. Delight, just happened to call for a grocery run, so I went along and stopped by the store. And what do ya know, they had been keeping my keys hidden away, just waiting for me to pick up!! That doesn't happen a lot in Africa or any country for that matter. These people were so sincere and honest...and I was so blessed by that! So you can be sure I will return and bring lots of friends to give them business.
This Sunday was another adventure at a new church! More blessings! The kids are precious!! I have lots of pictures and wonderful memories! There is such joy and freedom in the worship here...it is refreshing!
Check out the pictures I finally got up!!
