To start off, I wanted to give you a little update on my roommate, Katie. She's still in the States and is starting to feel a little bit better. She can still do minimal activity so she'll be up and doing stuff for a couple hours then just has to crash for a long time. Her appetite is back which is a blessing. She went into the doctor for blood work last Friday I think and should get results this week and will hopefully be back here in the next couple weeks!! Please keep praying... we miss her a lot. I've been meeting with Yun (the one who met with the witchdoctor) and she's really excited to start diving into the Bible. We met with her last week and talked about her starting to do the talks to a guys team where she has lots of connections and the coach requested that we help them. We don't have the number of staff to take on another team so we decided to help her along the way so she could do it. She's stoked about that too. She's a great kid who is really excited about lots of things in life... I'm excited I get to spend so much time with her.
This weekend we're babysitting John and Natalie's kids (4,3, and 11 months). They needed a well-deserved mini vacation. I'm learning alot about motherhood and how I'm not even CLOSE to being ready to be responsible for another human being. They are some good kids though.
We had our meeting with Alice yesterday. As she was walking up to meet with us, we realized she brought 2 of her suitemates, a soccer player and a track girl!! We got to study the Bible with all of them! As we were getting towards the end, one of the other volleyball players came up and sat with us, so we had 4 girls with us!!! It was awesome! Alice is really excited about growing in her faith and so she's just grabbing anyone who is willing to listen.
Thank you for all the prayers! It's cool to see all that's happening down here and see how God is working in the hearts of these girls. It has been amazing to get to know them more and see all they're going through but get excited about growing and learning new things... please keep praying! Love you all a whole lot.
