Students on Mission (Part 5)

AGED

Monday, 12 March 2012

Our mission continues on Monday at the ministry home for the girls as we paint their bedrooms.  It is a slow start, as the equipment we needed was not on location as promised ("be flexible!"). Nevertheless, by the end of the day, the bedrooms are finished.  And when the girls come home from school, they celebrate.  This task has been on the docket for over a year, but no one locally has jumped on it.

We eat with the girls in the evening.  When one of the girls is asked how old she thinks I am, she cautiously says, "97."  But then she adds, "You are in really good shape for 97!" Then one of my students quips, "Round is a shape."

I'm not sure this has been a good day...
