March Post #7

Praise the Lord for Fridays!! This week has flown by and dragged by at the same time. It has been quite an unusual week, which is saying a lot for Africa.

 

We’ve experienced a variety of challenges this week. From hot, humid weather (without the rain) to knife injuries to a lice break-out, it’s been an unusual week to say the least! Now, I don’t want to scare you by that mention of a knife. One of the kids was showing off his switch-blade knife and ended up cutting himself instead of the cup he was aiming for. Thankfully, there was a nurse on scene, and the doctor was just seconds away. We’re so blessed with the medical personnel on our team!

 

Unfortunately, like I mentioned, we’ve had some lice manifest themselves on some heads. We had one student out on Thursday due to lice, and today two more victims were discovered. Thankfully, to this point, our house is lice-free. We’re praying that it stays that way! In the midst of life’s craziness, isn’t it reassuring to have a constant God?!
