TWU has arrived


I'm going to write quick, because I'm down in town for just a little while.

The Trinity Western University team has arrived. Nine women and their leader have gotten settled into their host homes (they're living in pairs, although one will be left alone when the leader goes home). The girls seem to have good chemistry together and are doing a great job of supporting one another. They began teaching in Andre's kids club, teaching english, computer, piano, and guitar. The above picture shows Sara teaching Daury some quitar cords. The kids are so excited.
It seems that God is really working in these girls. So often just being in a different culture softens people to what the Lord wants to teach them. It's so easy for me-- I don't have to 'try' to teach them anything-- God uses the experience itself and the community to teach people when they put themselves in such a vulnerable situation.

Please be praying that they will be able to minister to their host families despite the language barrier.
