School has been fine for me so far. I have only been to one class because we arrived to Iringa on Thursday night. Gaudy left to return to Moshi on Friday morning and I started my first class shortly after she left.
I am actually picking up the language pretty fast. I know how to count to a million already but I need to be able to remember the verbs... So pray that I can retain about the verbs. Though school has been fine, staying in a tent has been an adjustment... Oh, I thought you knew... I am at a campsite (Riverside Campsite). The teachers come up to the site to teach us Swahili throughout the week. I would send you some pics but there is no flashdrive hookup at this cafe... I will try to send you some the next time we come. I can bring my laptop to do. But yes... a little friend named "Lizard Thing" woke me up this morning...lol... I don't know what kind of sound he made but it was enough to make me get up and get movin' I got up and washed my face right outside my tent opening (as you can see I didn't say door) and brushed my teeth... got dressed and went for breakfast... Bacon, eggs, and crepes... it was good...
Anyways, my time is running out here so I have to go... keep in touch with me guys.. and keep praying... I will let you know later about a experience Gaudy and I had on the bus before leaving to come to Iringa... We had the chance to witness about Jesus to a Muslim minister who was trying to witness to a man that was sitting next to us... I have to go so I will tell you later... Love you all....

Dearest, I love your Swahili name! It sounds very gentle, soft... like a warm blanket :) I'm reading your posts as an adventure book! Can't wait to hear what else God is going to do through you! It''s aaaa-maaa-zing how He brings people your way to speak into their lives! I'm so glad that you are open to hear His call and talk to people. Great Spirit sensitivity is definitely one of your gifts! Keep persevering!
Love in Christ, Oksana
