Tanzania Tuesday- Jeff

What an awesome opportunity. We were able to get some things done in the morning while we waited for the rest of our team to come back to town.  Then we headed to the seminary to pick up Pastor Robert and seminary student Dennis.  We all drove up to a nearby public school.  The school had 691 kids. It was by far our largest group. This was the public school Pastor Jeremiah and his children went too.  The principal was so appreciative of us coming that he asked that the seminary students come every Friday to teach Bible studies. What an awesome opportunity and great training for the seminary students to practice their Christian Education Methods coursework. 

What is eye opening is the fact that even in the public schools most of the children know the Bible lessons and the songs we are singing. We have noted how encouraging it is for the children to be so respectful of adults and thankful for what the Lord has done for them.  Such a contrast to what we see at home in the general community. 

We are looking forward to hopefully getting to do another large school close by tomorrow. Hard to believe it's almost time to head home. We have been very thankful for this trip.
