counting the gifts...

One of the best things about final exams is the feasting that we do when class is over.  We all pulled together for a pot luck of chicken, mashed potatoes, homemade rolls, veggies and dip, cookies, and cake.   It was a chance to make jokes and bond as a class.  And finally breathe a collective sigh of relief because we all made it through another semester together!

 After class was over I got a call from Spencer.  He was helping out with a fund raiser at the Expo for a student who wants to attend the upcoming Discipleship Training School at the YWAM.  

Flat Stanley even joined in to help with the fundraising!

We have been told that this is the only course of this kind being offered here in Belize.  Many of the volunteers with CDF will be taking the course (including me) and we hear that there are eight others from the community who have registered.  We are hoping for a great turn out and for many to stick it out for the full two years.  Please keep Tom and all of the students in your prayers!
