Tuesday, May 9th


Tuesday, May 9thI went to the school called Oyunii Tov today, with Erika, Erin and Sarah. We had two groups, the 1st to 6th graders, and then the 7th to high school group. We taught on the character quality of Gratefulness. It was one of the first times I was able to help teach. We have been observing the first few days, so that we can get a better idea of what we are to do. Sarah gave her testimony about her brother Isaac that just died in November, and how out of a love for Mongolia, he was buried here. Sarah (15) talked about how you can be grateful in any circumstance and how to find the good in everything. It really moved a lot of the students, and the translator, who was not expecting this, was having a hard time translating and when it was over, rushed out of the room. I am not sure if she is a Christian, but sometimes it is easier to become close to the translators and share the reason for the peace that we have in Christ. Please pray for her.
