Mondays

In language learning, weekends seem to be erasing our progress!  We spent all day Saturday with French speaking friends which was great, and then Sunday in the big city speaking English, and by Monday morning, it's as if we were zapped!  One day off, and we are nincompoops!

Our poor teacher is greeted by blank stares and long pauses each Monday morning.  The need for immersion and constant use of new language is clear!

We are beginning in week 9 of French study and have 12 more to go...please pray for a mighty outpouring of ability, endurance and the confidence to use the skills as we learn them... Using new language makes you vulnerable and embarrassed and just plain tired!!

We are amazed by all that God has done and continues to do in moving this 'normal-ish' family to the other side of the planet to tell new friends about Him! 

Thankful for new friends!

But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.  Acts 1:8
