Things are going well- Brian has same long days but good days with lots of after school activities. Last Thursday was a Bingham only cross country event, and this Saturday there will be about 7 schools at Bingham for the big meet: the Greek school, Italian school, American school, French school, etc.! Seeing the little kids run last Thursday was just so cute- they make the 1 km loop and when they come through the finish line, their faces look like they are in so much pain! Sweet little things! I always see a lot of my gal-friends when I am at Bingham so it is really fun chat time.
I had lunch with a nurse friend Becky yesterday. She is doing some community work somewhat similar to mine, but she has started lots of small group Bible studies- she says the only thing she uses is just the Bible stories. It was really inspiring- could that ever work in our neighborhood? Maybe I could get the ladies together around Yiftu's house and tell them a story? I know our project has a spiritual arm that I don't feel connected with- I want to talk to the spiritual relations man.
We went to visit the house of another of our guard friends- I would like to visit each of their houses sometime. We were tired (from the Great Ethiopian Run 10k) that we ran on Sunday morning and I was looking forward to a nap in the afternoon when he invited us, but then I started thinking and realized how much these visits connect us- we went and had a good time.
