Tuesday Events

On Monday we went in all directions. Carol, Barb and Jim went to lunch at the Source Cafe to have Pizza, I now it was hard, but they had to sacrifice. Len stayed back to prepare for his class and I went out to the worksite after I went with Rose Martha to the bank and Western Union. It took a while to get most of our money, but we have found that you can only get 500,000 shillings from an ATM machine. I had to wait for a long time to get money from the Western Union . They would not exchange one of our $50 because it was torn, and my $100 had been in my money belt and the weight of my stomach had wrinkled it, so they would not take a wrinkled bill. I went back to the class at 6:00 and taught for their hours to be caught up, while the group ordered their supper. I thought the pastors were eating at 6:00 but they do not eat until 8:00. When I got back at 7:00 our group was done eating but I order ice cream. While we were setting there I looked over at the stairs and a rat, a very large rat came down the stairs and was in the corner. When I yelled at the group "rat" I thought Jim was going to jump out of his skin. At that time it ran back up the stairs and out of sight. But we decided to stay seated for a while, just to let the rat have some time to get farther away. Today we will not have use of the van, because it is going to go in for repair on the steering. We all agree that is important, so when it is done they will go and pick it up and then pick up the men at the worksite. Len and I are planning to take a Boda Boda at 9:00 am tomorrow and go down town for a little shopping and I will go to the Western Union to collect the rest of my money for the school. Have a wonderful day and we will be home soon. If we see anymore rats, we may be home sooner than you thought. In Christ Byron Fritz
