Choma (Zambia) Update

terry's update: teaching is going well, yesterday his group(louis, paul, owen) had a group of about 20 students for their discipleship lesson. The students were attentive and asked a lot of good questions. Today they did not have any students, so they got a little nap time in the teacher's lounge. The teaching of regular academic subjects is fun to teach too, he said. This school would be considered to be one of the better ones, he says the students are pretty well disciplined in their learning.. Our boys played the school boys in basketball and won, however our girls lost to the school girls. Terry said that LaCrae (the rap artist) is in high demand, everyone wants to spend time with him, so he really has little down time.
Revival was last night at the school, was great. Tomorrow they travel to a village about 2 hours away. Dinner last night was a little tough, a kind of meal that was shared with hands out of one or two bowls at the school. Looking up for tonight, dinner will be back where they are staying and potatoes were being peeled! He feels like this is pretty meaningful for our group as well as for the students in Choma.
