Today we got up at like 9ish. We had a breakfast of bread and peanut paste. The peanut paste was DELISH!!!! Its like peanut butter but a thousand times better. Then we went to the church at around 10. We sorted through the suitcases and then packed up all the sewing stuff and Message Hub stuff into the trucks. Then Junia, Sis Heddy, Beth, Oren, Jazmin, Laura and I went to Bro Stephen's house. Oren and Beth taught the Message Hub, Jazmin and Laura sorted sewing stuff and watched babies and Junia, Sis Heddy and I taught sewing. I discovered that I am not a very good teacher... At around 2, everyone else came and we had lunch. Then all us girls (except Hannah and Sharon) went to church. After church, we went to the pastor (Bro Samson I think) house for a meal. It was really nice. There were a lot of different foods. Their main staples are rice and banana/matoka/plantain. The food is really good but my stomach is very sensitive to it :( We rode home with Bro Emmanuel. He is a pastor in Eganga. He told us that he lives off only what the Lord has blessed him with. Every month he only gets maybe $100. With that he sends his five boys to school, buys food and everything. School costs $350 per term and there are three terms in a year. The people here are so amazing. They totally trust in God for everything and they are so content. And they are so welcoming! Like everyone we talk to says "You are so welcome!" or "You are very welcome!". They are just such amazing people!! After we got home, I went almost right to sleep. And I had already eaten dinner so I didn't have to get up. Junia came in after they ate dinner and I was like 'Is it already morning?'. I was so tired!!! lol.
