Today we went back to the Catch Up School. Katie and Carlee taught English; Malloy, Emily, and Daniel taught math; and Taylor, Alyssa, and Rebekah taught science. We incorporated Bible stories and scripture into each class we taught. We went to the school from around 10-12:30. We got to know more of their names and stories.
We returned to the apartment for lunch and then returned to the school around 3 for an hour or so. The kids were so excited by the fact we came back to see them and were so happy to hear we are going back tomorrow too. One boy came up to Rebekah and Katie and told them “did you know Jesus loves you? I learned that today”. The kids love watching Carlee dance. When you look at the kids at the school you can see the face of Jesus. They are all so affectionate and eager to hug and touch us.
Tonight we ate dinner together and prepared our hearts and minds to return to the Catch Up School tomorrow, where we will eat a meal with the kids. Carlee, Stacy, and Daniel played music and worshipped with Zachy, a man who’s been traveling with us some as we’ve been here. Stacy and Bekah gave Pius’s wife comfortable shoes to wear, as she has been working nonstop to prepare our meals. We are all going to bed early to prepare ourselves for tomorrow.

God bless you all. Just sending my ” shout out” to Ms. Carlee Baker, I wanted her to know that I’m praying for her and the whole group while they are spreading the word of the Gospel and the wonderful teachings of Jesus.
Glad to hear everybody is having a wonderful experience.
Blessing for all.
