Day of Rest

Today we had a much-needed day off. I rested because I'm still not feeling better. I also went to the doctor, found out I have bronchitis and got a bunch of medicine. I'll lay low tomorrow. I'd appreciate your prayers for my health and that of the rest of the team (who all seem to be fine thankfully).

The rest of the team did their own thing. The guys all bought soccer jerseys and played soccer with the kids from Kathy's home. Some of them went to find a silver factory - they didn't find it but ended up at the home of a private silver maker who sold them some jewelry. Some of the students also bought various things at the market.

The only downside about being stuck in my room was that the resort had been invaded by the teachers from this district. There were two separate parties going on for most of the day. They both had karaoke machines blaring and the ones who "sang" for the most part couldn't! Pretty terrible noise all day, even with my window closed. My iPod was very much a God-send!

Tomorrow the students will teach again. Pray for continued opportunities to share God's love with the students and teachers there.
