November 2016 Newsletter
Dear Friends and Family,
I am so thankful for
your prayers, love, and support. I love the way you stay in touch with
information from “home”. Without your support in prayer and finances I could
never live and serve in Rwanda.
Last week I told my secondary ESL students when they can do
the same work as other students and take the same exams independently with no
intervention, and their grades are “C” or above in every class consistently,
they will be able to “graduate” from English language learning and go back to
their regular class. The response I got
was, “But we don’t want to leave, we love you”. We never know the impact we
have on people we serve. You will hear more about my students in future
newsletters.
I told one of my 9th graders that I was looking
forward to meeting her father at the parent/teacher conference. Her response?
“He’s coming?!” “Yes”. Her whole face
lit up like a Thanksgiving Candle. Her (typical) 9th grade
friends saw her face light up and said, “That’s a good thing??” She turned and
smiled. Her hasn’t seen her father in a year. He lives and works in Burundi. He
came from another country just for teacher conferences.
As I look forward to
my birthday 11/27, I’m old enough to legally retire. I want to continue
working and serving Him who gave everything for me. My desire is to love with Jesus’
love, to be his hands and feet, to be so much like Him that people are
attracted to His love flowing through me.
Prayer Requests:
That I realize
more fully my identity in Christ
