Today was the second round of shots for half of orientation. In addition to the shots, each person recieved the shot of stuff for the TB skin test. This backed up the schedule, and created mass hysteria among the children because this was where they could see it. Needless to say, there were abundant amounts of tears shed and down-cast faces. The rest of the week has been spent in two different workshops regarding doctrine and spiritual warfare. They both were informative. The second was led by Jerry Rankin, IMB president. He did an amazing job of really bringing to light our struggles that qualify as spiritual warfare. Others who are on the field now, say that it is all very relevant!
This week began with two wonderful, fun-filled, non-stop evenings of babysitting the SIX kids in our quad. Yes, that translates to 3 single men and 6 kids all under the age of 5! The first night was voluntary so that their parents could go out on a date alone! The parents loved it and we loved having the kids! The second night was so that the parents could attend the fellowship at Jerry Rankin's house. It was actually a great time to meet with him, his wife, and some of the other big wigs of the IMB! The best part about kid watching for both nights was dinner. Thank you Father for those who came along to help. Though it was great fun which is quite certainly to be repeated again very soon!
