This week we have been learning tools to use once we get to the field. We have trained in a concept called T4T. Training for trainers. In essence we learned how to go into our people group and train locals to lead in their own churches. We have also learned a great tool called Bible Storying. It is my favorite tool so far because you use a situation that you are in and share in conversation a bible story that relates to the situation. For example, if I was talking to another busy mom and we are discussing how much work it is to keep us with our family, I could share with her the story about Martha and Mary. Jesus teaches Martha that all of her busy work does not matter in the end, he encourages her to do is be more like Mary and sit at the feet of Jesus. I need to be reminded of this story quite often!
They offer many different extracurricular classes here everyday. Tonight Trinity is going to Taekwondo and Friday I am taking a basic haircutting class. Don't worry I am not going to cut my own but I do have to take a “hair model” with me. I am going to have the kids draw straws! :)

I have found myself being busy busy and have to make myself sit still and listen for God. I think a lot of moms have to struggle with that.I can't wait to tell Jacob you are taking a hair cutting class--I made him let david cut his hair this a.m.--I'll tell him it is preparation for the mission field.
