Here in Iringa we are not immune to demonstrations. Last Friday as we drove in to town we were stuck behind a great big truck which was not moving. After peering round the edge of it I realised the reason - a line of students blocking the road next to the Post Office. I took the car into the precinct of the PO for safety, and almost immediately a pick-up arrived in the road with helmeted police so the students moved quickly on. It was not at all dangerous, but of course we felt we'd experienced a bit of drama and excitement.
At the school in Kilolo, Kevin is continuing to work on updating the computers, and also now some of the school publications. He is busy and happy. The computer teacher, Denis is also doing the job of managing the boys hostel, so please pray for him as he juggles these and other commitments.
Recently the Bible Knowledge students have been enjoying their discussions of the text - in Form III we have just looked at the call of Moses and how he went to Egypt as an adult, the first passover, Exodus, and receiving the ten commandments. We are about to enter the promised land! With form four, in Acts 13 - 16 Paul has reached Phillipi, bean beaten up and put in prison, singing away with Silas, and the doors opened through an earthquake. I love teaching these stories, and feel that this is where God wants me/us to be.
