While walking back from our classroom this morning, I followed a small boy herding two very thin cows, a woman carrying a huge load of sticks on her head and a church choir that burst out into perfect four part harmony. At the house I saw a pack of mongoose running through the brush.I didn't have my camera for any of this! Drats!
Here are photos of the road from Sheila's house down to the classrooms, the flowers along the way, and the persimmon tree in the back yard. Also is a photo of four elderly pastors who were honored at the graduation. One was 100 years old. Two had leprosy when they were younger. They had served the Lord faithfully for decades. The woman kneeling in front of them is one of the professors here. She is offering to wash their hands before supper.
Our class was challenging this morning. I taught on the worth of women in the kingdom of God. Some of the men have a very traditional view of women and their roles. John then taught on what an egalitarian Christian marriage looks like. Some of the men seemed open to this. Hopefully we helped others see how Jesus honored women.
Blessings, Sylvia
