Friday afternoon, the tree goes up! We are not putting up many decorations, but it seems like the house is full of Christmas spirit!
We leave PNG on December 14th, but friends are staying in our house, so we get to put up decorations for them to enjoy as well!
Scott was sick most of Thursday! Sori tru! We ate with the “lower half” of the station at the Bennetts. We are so truly thankful!
Upon returning from our meetings in Manila, I realized how much of a Christian bubble I live in, while outside our hospital station there are many people who are hungry for God. My goal was to, weekly, go to the road bung (where 2 roads come together) and make friends.
So, I was going to the road bung for our costume party. I texted (I know can you believe we have cell phones here!) Scott to tell him I was going, and he texted back “I will pray for a natural opening” If I was a faster texter, I would have wrote back, “no, I am just going for clothes”. But it takes me forever to text, so I didn’t.
While I was there, I shook hands with a lady, who seemed to want to talk. We talked quite a while. I invited her to my house sometime. When we were done shopping, she found me and we walked home together, to show her where I live.
She said I am going to work in your garden. I am going to change my life and be a Christian because we are friends.
Who will you run into today that is just a handshake away from a friendship with you and a relationship with God?
This is the phone jack in my kitchen. My phone wasn’t working, upon trying to fix it, there was 8 gecko eggs inside! This wasn’t the problem, but glad to get them out before they hatched!
I found a store that had wool! The lady said no one had ever spent as many pesos as I did on wool before!
They have Panda Fish!
