On Friday night the rain returned. We have continued getting rain off and on and that should help everyone who is growing maize. We started a little vegetable garden near the kitchen at the school and it is sprouting well. Once we have lots of seedlings, Alex and the children will transplant them into the rest of the garden area, since they are now only on one row.
Yesterday there was great excitement when the children found a mother mouse who had babies. The mother was dead but the babies were alive. So several children were holding the babies. Sunday we heard screaming in the Village. Afraid that children were hurt we went outside and the excitement was a spitting cobra that the boys killed.
School is going well with wonderful teachers. A new mother starts today and after being trained, she will be the permanent mother for the house that has not had a mother since Miriam left.
Our Bible Study at school this term is about Christian Character. Last week we discussed Forgiveness. Dick Mumba preached an outstanding sermon on forgiveness at the Sunday service. He said that forgiveness is turning over the matter to God. He is the judge, we cancel it in our minds and hearts, and just give it to him. It spoke to all of us.
May the children learn to give love for the offense and to remember it no more, just as God has done with us.
