Well, we have finished the third day of Literacy Training. All of the Christian brothers and sisters were really enjoying the lessons today. It is so amazing to see so many church leaders practicing English so that they can teach God's Word in English. I truly had not thought about this before. Bro. Dan talks to them at lest once a day about the importance of understanding the words and giving them the proper translation. It occurred to me that these same church leaders may wind up being my interpreter when we start doing mobile medical clinics to the remote villages. Or they may teach someone else to speak, understand, read and translate English. This is truly a great program.
One of the actives used to teach is singing. One of the songs is the "Hokey-Pokey song. It is fun to watch and listen as they learn new words and how to pronounce them. It rained all day today, but the spirit of learning was never dampened.
God is Good.
