Alright guys... nothing too outstanding today.. but I did get a chance to eat a traditional Tanzanian dish today... It's called Mkande (muh-con-day)... It was actually pretty good. It's made with beans and corn.. the beans are cooked in a coconut sauce and some other stuff.... I forgot... I just ate! I will be leaving for language school tomorrow so please keep me prayed up. I have a bus ride to Dar es Salaam tomorrow, a town about 7-9 hours away and then I will travel to Iringa the next day.. another 7-9 hours... I'm excited about it though. Being able to speak the language here will definitely help with being able to witness in their mother tongue (most people speak Swahili and their tribal language... so Swahili is actually their second languge. With there being so many different tribes here, learning Swahili is my best bet). Just pray that I pick it us quickly and easily. I have heard that Swahili is a pretty easy language but thats just what I heard :o)
Well love you guys and I pray the best for you too... Oh yeah, I got some really good nuggets from Ephesians 2 this evening. I could not help but reverence God for all the blessings that we have in Christ. Check it out. I am sure that it will bless your soul.
Blessings,
April Nicole

I hope that your response is "M'Zuri Sana" if not "Pole Sana" (lol). I'm excited for you girl! Learn as much as you can so you can teach us when you get back. I pray safety, blessings, and peace for you while you're in Langauge school. I love you girl.

PS. Don't try to smuggle any more Masai knives, we need you back in the country okay (lol).
And Bashiri says, "I'll be gone to november...January, February, March, April, May...I hear you crying, but you know I can't stay."
These are his words (pray for him). (lol)
Hey April,
Girl I am so glad that your trip was safe. Your safety is already secured. Take care and enjoy yourself.
I love you! Stay strong on the mission for the Lord!
