The students arrive back today.  We look forward to their stories of home.  I also look forward to the assessment of what the kids have retained while being at home.

With the students gone I take advantage of the quiet that falls on the Center.  I have been busy reading and writing curriculum for upcoming trainings and lessons.  I had no idea that my love for writing would come in quite so handy.  I am sure that God has always known.  I am not a pro by any stretch.  But, the need is great here in Tanzania.  There are so few books and not very good curriculum.  I continue to study the culture so that I can write curric. that teach valuable lessons, biblical truths, with minimal resources in an easy format for Tanzanians to use.  The job is very big but I continue to pray for wisdom.  I keep learning and soaking in what's around me.  I will keep you posted on the process.

I now will take turns introducing you to each of our students one by one.  Check back to see the beautiful faces of our class.
