Nu Poe Outreach Highlights

Last week we were invited by one of the pastors to come along and help at a discipleship training course… little did we realize until after we agreed that he wanted us to help teach! Well, here is how the week went, beginning with a typical day:
○ 0600- Awaken

○ 0630- Bucket Cold Water Shower (brrrr)

○ 0730- Breakfast of yellow Indian curry, grease sticks (similar to donuts, but w/o the sugar), & of course, rice
○ 0830- Mingling with students from surrounding villages, practicing English
○ 0900- Worship
○ 0930- Lori's testimony & encouragement
○ 1015- Anders' teaching James 1 (definitely weren't my words- it all flowed too seamlessly)

○ 1200- Lunch of vegetable dishes & chopped chicken w/ chopped bones
○ 1300- Dennis spoke on Ephesians 1-3

○ 1500- Class dismissed
○ 1600- Checked out hydroelectric power generators & solar panels most homes in the area are using for electricity

  1. How do you eat chopped bones? And am only guessing here, but guess you don't play soccer with kids wearing cuffed pants.
