Albania Teaching - 1st Week

Well, after the first week we know our students pretty well. I hope they are enjoying it as much as we are. Charles and Gwen are really excited about their students. Some of the students are a little concerned at first but really into it by now. Some are learning about God for the first time. Some do not believe yet, some are finding out that we did not come from monkeys as they have been taught in school. A few are in the class for English but are already getting very interested in the Bible.

We went to Lushnje yesterday and visited with Tom Bonner. We road the bus and it took three hours getting there just in time for the morning service. Tom brought us back to Tirana in his van. Work is slower there but Tom is doing well.

Electricity is staying on this year and the A/C units keep the church and school space very cool. Thanks to all who contributed to this fund last fall. Tom Langley got a cask on his foot this morning and plans to stick it out for the remainer of this week.

I must return to the church building now to meet with a student. Will write more later.
