The students have been on their own for every ministry occasion except when we were at The Door of Heaven. Everything is going great and their willingness to cooperate, has been excellent. They sure want to eat “typical food” and “seem” to be willing to try anything – well almost. Anyway food has not been a problem even with the pickiest of them – and that varies from day to day.
We finally got AC in the living-kitchen area. It keeps the “water-falls” from cascading down but you still get the “mist” that keeps you alert to the temperature. However, all things can be dealt with on the mission field. But you still miss the AC of your own home.
Because I am not going with the LTI students I have been able to work on the latest CLU course - The Development, Study and Scope of the Bible. It is a basic course that gives the students a sample of the major areas they will face if they have a major in Bible, such as: Authority, Writing and Transmission of the Bible, Canon of Scripture, Old Testament Intro, Between the Testaments, New Testament Intro, Geography of the Bible, Archaeology, Prophecy and Hermeneutics.
I have to complete this in English first and then begin the switch into Spanish. I hope to video tape this course while in Peru during the last part of June and into July. So the “unscheduled free time” has been a blessing.
Today the students enjoyed being in an “Old Folks’ Home” (not mine, cause I ain’t old). When I say “enjoyed” I am speaking truthfully and they were even given an invitation to return. This afternoon they are in a village of Caribbean descendants. And tonight we go to the home of our driver, Ramon and Marina for supper. She is fixing us a “real typical” meal. We are all looking forward to it.
So until you read more, we remain the same – happy and blessed.
Thanks for your prayers,
Dr D & Marilyn, Cody, Lindsay, Stacie, and Katie
