Hi everyone, sorry ive taken so long to get back to you!
Alannah and I have been settling into our new routine, which involves helping at a preschool teaching the alphabet and numbers and teaching English to help train preschool teachers with Oasis.
Though this might not seem to be a busy day, getting to and from the different projects, along with the heat, and all the planning and preparation we have to do in our spare time has worn us out BIG TIME. Please pray for good rest and enough time to relax and enjoy ourselves as well as spending time with God.
I'm so thankful that God spoke to me on Sunday at church and challenged me to be honest with Alannah about how I was feeling because it meant that she could be honest with me too and it meant we are more comfortable with each other now and are closer and stronger because of it. We had a fun evening with the youth at another church playing games like uno, laughing until our stomachs ached and riding on the back of motorbikes (without helmets!)
I feel that we've started to bond more with the kids and the women who we've been teaching and I feel like I understand my colleagues more. They are extremely faithful and serving women and men of God!
Because we're feeling quite rundown at the moment, we're worried we're more prone to getting ill especially since many of our friends here have come down with a prolonged virus, which has been devastating to their work. Please pray against illness for us, we'd be really grateful!
Another prayer-point would be in meeting up with and spending time socialising and catching-up with Indian friends. We're feeling the strain of having a lot of work to do and not enough time to meet up with people.
Alannah was delighted to see 2 of her past students from the preschool she used to work in with Oasis during her gap year - Priyakumari and Stephen. There will be many pictures of these 2 kids to come!!!
We love you all and thank you SO MUCH for supporting us and praying for us!
God Bless you and speak to you soon!
Love Yolly and Alannah xxxx
