Today we got to spend some time with the children which was such a blessing. I was with the younger group of kids.. First they had a Bible lesson and then after that we took them to the local park to play. Tried to upload pictures, but it wasn´t working. Will try again tomorrow!
Yesterday I said that the language barrier wasn´t too difficult... Well today proved the exact opposite, when I consistently failed to understand even the smallest child´s words to me. Actions speak so much louder than words so it isn´t too bad.
The hospitality here is so amazing. People truly put you before themselves, it is such a humbling feeling. Off to explore the city and visit a market!
In love,

Nick-
ReplyDeletelike you said, actions speak louder than words so much. so don't give up or become discouraged. i'm sure the kids appreciate you so much more because you're actually there interacting with them... so speaking with them shouldn't matter as much (even though we all know you love to talk). i'm glad you're learning a lot and just know that we're all thinking of you here. enjoy the experience.. and i want to see lots of pictures :-)
