Over The Last Few Days

Taylor

The last few days have been quite interesting. I got to share my knowledge and personal beliefs about the character of Jesus with my RMPS class for second year students. The class has seemed to enjoy the lessons so I suppose that's good. The past two days, I have gone through the parable of the Good Samaritan with the RMPS class. They seem to understand the message of the parable. The last couple days--outside of the RMPS classes--I have tried to get into other classes to get involved with a different group of students. God is incredible--and He continues to bless with opportunities to glorify Him. That said, please continue to pray for open hearts and minds as we continue our ministries. God bless and thank you for the prayers!

This week was again spent in the school. I have really enjoyed being there and getting to know the students better, which has led to some deeper discussions involving their lives and their faith. On Monday, I had the opportunity to lead a second year RMPS class in a discussion of who Jesus is; the powerpoint and the worksheets with questions I hope really made the students consider Jesus and his life and sacrifice, and what that all means to them. For some of them, I think it was perhaps the first time they had really thought about what they believe. They asked some really good questions as well. We did learn from one student that they have been taught about all of the world's major religions since they were in primary, it was an everyday class which was probably not taught by a believer of any faith, so Jesus and Christianity could have been represented in any light. On Tuesday, we had the pleasure of attending the schools band concert. The kids were so good, and one girl who Alex Jane and I are close with,told me that she was so glad we were able to come, it just made it better. Wednesday we had a couple girls over to our flat for a bit, and just talked to them, and then this afternoon Alex Jane and I went to coffee with a girl and just talked about faith and life. Thank you for your prayers over us and the people we meet this summer.
