It was a long Monday and then, I really do not know what happened the rest of the week.
I did teach my last Bible study with the girls. And on Wednesday, I spoke to a Women’s group… in Dagbani! Memorized! Talk about stressful. I stumbled a bit and I sounded like a robot but they said they understood. They prayed for me to come back after my Home Assignment.
Thursday I ran away to hide and catch my breath and took a day off. There is a pool that I went to. I was the only one there. Because of Harmattan, the water was so cold so I only went in once. Then I just read my books, talked to peeps on the phone and had a nap. Lovely.
I had a team meeting to host at my house and I did a good job of emptying out things in my cupboard! My team has been one of the most encouraging parts about living in Tamale. The sharing and prayer times, the singing and laughing. Such a balm in this dry and weary land.
Had my friend Martha’s 2 kids over to bake her a cake. It was her birthday on Sunday. I later decorated it and brought it over. We sang, ate, laughed and enjoyed. I did not know this until afterwards, but Martha has never had a cake before, not even at her wedding! I was so happy to serve her.
So, a new week already. I have theeeee language evaluation Tuesday at 10am Ghana time. I am sure it will be fine but just thinking about it, I get nervous. It has been my goal since 2016 to pass this level. It would be wonderful to go home with this checked off my list.
Love you. Thanks for praying!
