Wow, that post I did last night took forever. I will try to
write something everyday, but we have internet from 9-midnight, and you can
imagine how hard that is with 3 girls living in this house and with the
connection being slower then dial up ( which some young people don’t even know
what that is). I just wanted to tell you a little about my day today! My first
day at church, which I didn’t understand at all. Breaking of bread is at 11;30,
then ministry at 12;30, but time doesnt matter here, so we started an hour
late. But that gave me a chance to meet some of the people, and children!
During the meeting I did a lot of praying and reading to myself, but some of
the songs I can sing, just not understand what I am saying. I am getting a lot
better at hello, some 2 handed hand shakes and some chapping my hands together
while saying mwane (sp?). If you don’t know what to say you say that, so of
course that’s what I say to everyone haha!! Hey give me a break, I just got
here, give me a week or two.
I am very excited to work in the hospital tomorrow, they
said I can do a lot of things, nurse are more like nurse practitioners here,
only one doctor. I will be able to tell you more tomorrow on what the hospital
is like. We work from 7;30-1;30, and then done for the rest of the day.
We went to the market and saw what the villagers eat-
surprisingly it is caterpillars, fish, potatoes, nuts and other bugs. I am so thankful for American food, that
people send to the missionaries. I have had a great meal every night, and there
is always dessert…that’s not good for me! I will pot pictures if it loads, but
I have 30 min before the electricity turns off, so I hope to post 1 or 2. Well
off to bed, because whats to do when you have no electricity...... exactly!
This is what your feel look like all day long, most just don't wear shoes
Harriet and I room, we love the mosquitoes nets, we feel like princesses, and oddly more secure.
