Sorry the blog has not been updated in a while. But to be honest nothing has been too exciting. Jessica has said that they are REALLY missing clean, clear tap water. What a common necessity that we take for granted? During the day Mike works outside and Jessica teaches a group of girls. They love her and never want her to leave. The village has given them some African clothing but they are pants and Jessica is not for sure if she can wear them to church, since they don't allow women to wear pants in church. Monday there are going to go on a safari to see some animals in the wild. I think that would be so cool. It will surely be an unforgetabke experience.
Today was their day off so she walked with some girls to their water hole to get water and the girls told her that you couldn't come at dark or the gorillas would get you. YIKES!!! To get to the water hole they had to walk 3/4 a mile and through the jungle.
She has been eating a lot of rice and oranges. The other day she noticed that she had noodles in her rice. Sure enough she got sick, luckily she was able to make it back to the hotel before she got too bad.
It is a very poverty stricken area the houses that are more modern don't even have windows or doors. The people there don't feel that it is a necessity. I know that they are really enjoying their time there and God is really using them to spread HIS word.
