Our beginnings as missionaries

Our house/room is on the left.  We have two twin beds next to each other and I brought a refrigerator.  Outside our window is a courtyard and beyond that is the Life School for Kids and the cafe where there is internet.  We share a bathroom with another single mom and her two older girls, for now.  So our door is on the left and our room once inside the door is on the right.  There is the bathroom in the middle and the other girls on the left.  The kitchen does not have a stove so that's alittle difficult but we have a plug in griddle, a toaster oven and coffee maker, what else is there? :-)

The laundry and kitchen

Today there were 10 children at the life school and we went down to feed the chickens.  Yes, chickens, lots of them.  I will post pictures when I can figure out how to upload them to a shared computer.  The children loved doing this and we get fresh eggs.  There is a huge garden for the community too.  Selah "helped" plant the seeds and we visited the greenhouse.  I hope to have time to help with the garden.  There is much to be done pretty regularly.

We take pictures for our passports tomorrow evening.  Thankfully someone on campus can do it for free.  Yay!  There is such a wonderful and beautiful mix of people with many talents and abilities.  I got to meet the guy who is the president of the Mentoring Project for fighting fatherlessness.  He came here to do a lesson, amazing!

More to come soon.
