Today marks the first day of school for
Jennifer and the boys. The boys have been making the most of the last few weeks
of vacation. Ben’s been doing odd jobs around the house to earn a little bit of
extra cash and Cole’s been trying to work through a correspondence course for
Chemistry. Jennifer has been working to get not only her class but also the
school ready for today. Most of the renovations from last years flood have been
completed but there are still a few handymen (and women) putting together the science
lab and the cafeteria.
August, however, is still holiday season for
most students in Niger—school doesn’t begin until late September. The church
youth are participating in weeklong youth retreat at which Dave shared Tuesday
afternoon. This youth retreat is being done in conjunction with several
churches in town. Dave has been working on putting together a leadership
retreat for the church at the end of this month that will focus on church
planting. Please pray that not only the details would come together but that
this would be a time when God would speak to people and be a catalyst for
further ministry.
