I'm Moving

The time has come.  My bags are beginning to get packed.  My house is being cleared out.  Things are being sold and given away.  I have accepted a position in the city below.

I will be teaching 1st Grade at Denver Christian.  It has been a long road of expectantly waiting on God to provide the perfect job for me.  He has provided many different options but it took trust and faith to pick the best one.  I know that this is where God wants me in the new season of my life in America.  I'll be coming round the mountain August 12.

Failed Experiment with the help of a Plant Fairy

We are learning about what plants need to grow.  Water, sunlight, good soil, a seed, and some air- basic ideas.  We did an experiment with 4 different pots.  We gave them certain things to see what would happen to them.

The fourth pot was not given water or sunlight and it grew the most.  The first pot was given water and sunlight and it did not grow at all.  We are speculating that a magical plant fairy came and watered the last pot so that the pepper plants could grow.  My wonderful experiment foiled, silly plant fairy.

A normal day in the village

Every week Brittany, Ibu Fany and I go to the village to teach English to the children.  You never know what to expect when you go.  This week was no different.  As we were working on our worksheet this little baby comes in half naked with a huge meatball on a stick.  Everyone wanted a bite of the meatball.

Then another girl came in with her bathing suit on.   

After the lesson we always take an Ojek to the mall where we usually grab dinner and then catch the bus back to Sentul. This man is always waiting to give us a ride.  This week he dressed up for the occasion and wore a hat.  

As we were waiting for another Ojek.  I took a picture with Brittany and the kids. They love getting their picture taken.  

Another normal day in the village. 

Door to Door Laundry Service

This is what we saw on our way from church to dinner.

A man is on a bicycle with a washing machine on the back of it trying to maneuver through traffic.
