This one is going to be shorter, I just want to give you the highlights from the week because we don't have long at the internet cafe today....
Tuesday we went and found a new village with our supervisor and the people there were very welcoming. They gave us sweatened sourred milk which is a really big deal for them and it was actually really good. So our supervisor is going to start going there more often and start doing bible stories with them.
Wednesday we went to one of our regular villages to do discipleship and got in a good conversation with the king! He started talking about hell and our supervisor just boldly told him that the road he was following would lead him to hell. She went on to tell him the one true road that leads to heaven is Jesus. They debated friendly and he asked if she would come back and spend a day explaining this further. His wife is an Islamic religious teacher in the community. Pray for the Lord to take out Satan's strongholds there.
This weekend was our midterm review so we're half way there! That song has sung true for us... oooooh we're half way there oooohhh oooh livin on a prayer take my hand we'll make it I swear. It really does just take prayer and hanging on to each other for Lauren and I right now and it sweet to struggle through it together. Keep praying for endurance and a steadfast, willing spirit to sustain us for the second half of our stay in Africa. Love yall!
