We have been offline since arriving in Mois Bridge, so our post may well be a couple days late. Our second day at Holy Cross School went well. We have divided the students into three groups. There are over 110 preschoolers, approximately 80 1st through 4th graders, and approximately 60 5th through 8th graders. Carl and I were in charge of music today. We talked about the biblical message behind the children's songs we sang--"Jesus Loves Me," "The B-I-B-L-E," "The Wise Man Built His House Upon the Rock," "I Have Joy in My Heart," "He's Got the While World in His Hands." The children enjoyed learning how to breathe from their tummies when they sing. My second season with the faculty also went well. We covered the law,ending with the law's identifying us as sinners in order to prepare our hearts for the gospel. That lesson will be Monday. We have developed a close relationship with our hostess, Anna Segala, and her daughter, Mary, who is the head-mistress of Holy Cross School. We have all grown close to our driver, Patrick, who has joined us for many of our meals. One of the great blessings of this trip will be the special bonds of Christian love that are being developed and which we hope to maintain while here in this life and which will ultimately be enjoyed throughout eternity.
