I wish I could upload my pictures so you could see what I see.
God is doing some neat stuff here! After my first day of teaching at the rainbow centre, I was so tired. I was able to Skype my mom, she said she would pray. I was reminded that I can do all things through Him who gives me strength. As the evening progressed, I was filled with an energy and so many ideas! I know it was a God thing, because I was a little discouraged.
Today I have a cold. Pray it goes away quickly!
This morning, we are going to the mall. Haha, I go to Africa, and there is no escaping the mall! Later this afternoon, I'll be going back to the rainbow centre to teach english. Praise God that I have been encouraged!
Oh the mall! It was crazy.
At the "mall" thrift stores from around the world send big bundles of clothing. Vendors buy the clothes and put them in piles. The people sort through them to find something good.
There are also vendors who sell fruits, vegetables, and mattresses.
One lady told me to take a photo. So I did.
After I took the photo, she asked to see it. So I showed it to her.
She then held out her hand to ask for money for the photograph. She rambled something off in Swahili…
The photo wasn't that great.
That's a CLASSIC move overseas! Now you know. Just be careful, some people and places can be very pushy and aggressive.
