On Monday I went to the gym in the morning with Myke before working on my Mandarin. From class we went over to the market to buy food for dinner. Tom and I cooked a curry-like dish. After dinner I relaxed and did some reading for one of my classes.
On Tuesday morning we headed back to the school to teach English. I really feel so blessed to have this opportunity. These twenty or so young people have sacrificed so much for His mission - not to mention their families and churches. Each Tuesday we spend a full day with them teaching English. After an hour or so, we usually split off into smaller groups. I love my small group! I was greatly moved by our time of prayer. My friends have little education, little money and little status but they carry an incredible joy and trust in Christ. On Tuesday evening the three of us went out for dinner with Tom and Grace. I spent a good part of the evening reading for one of my courses.
Yesterday morning I got up early and went over to the gym. Mike was busy and couldn't join men. I spent the rest of the morning studying Mandarin. After that Mike, Gen and I went out for lunch at a restaurant near our school called Kung Fu. After class we came home and cooked dinner. For the rest of the evening I continued to read for one of my courses. The book is over 600 pages but thankfully I should be done in the next couple of days.
Blessings
