This morning when we got up it was snowing outside! And it continued to snow all day! We were going to take a trip to the countryside this afternoon, but since there was so much snow, it was not safe to travel out side the city. But I really did not mind, it was just so cool to see all the snow, and in May too! We went to a character class for teachers, teaching them how to teach their students in the schools different character qualities. In some ways it is really hard in those certain classes not to be able to tell them about God, the reason behind the character and why we even need to strive and be people of character. Sure, it does make peace with others and a better quality of life, and there are blessings to fallowing these things. But the motivation, a lot of times, is not on Glorifying God, as much as it is learning how to better them selves. We (CTI) have been learning new ways to get to know our students, and have personal relationships with them so that we can share the good news with them. It is interesting, the students who are already Christians very quickly realize that we are Christians by the things that we teach and the way that we live, and we have been able to disciple them and encourage them. This afternoon Erika and I had to go and get “Registered? all we needed was a picture and a letter from CTI, and they stamped our passport as registered. I guess it is a precaution in case they have to get a hold of all the American’s in Mongolia for some reason.
