3rd Day is done

Another great day.  Training went well.  A couple of today's presentations were a bit weaker but overall, it was fantastic.  We are having a great time with all the pastors - so many laughs and so much good conversation.  Tomorrow is a half day.  We'll be looking at one Psalm together and we plan to focus on their weakest spots.  Then I give a closing demonstration sermon.  It's hard to figure out how long it should be and will be with translation.  I'm excited to give it.  My runny nose is getting worse but I feel alright.  After we got home Damian and I had a few errands to run.  He wanted to buy some Rwandan soccer Jerseys for his kids.  When you are a Muzungu (white person), negotiating prices can be hard.  We have made good friends with a small bakery owner family and they started off helping us find the Jerseys.  We ended up in a shop we were at the first day.  I highly pregnant women name Daria, is a co-owner of the store.  She has 2 kids at home.  She gave us a much fairer price than the other places.  She was just super sweet - we were so impressed.  We had a few balls with us and I gave her a ball for her kids to play with.  She was moved to tears.  We asked about when she was due and asked to pray for her.  She was so grateful.  I am not describing it as beautifully as it happened, but it was so good.  We had made friends at the sports park and Timmy told us he liked to coach kids soccer (he had no idea we had soccer balls).  We went and saw him and gave him soccer balls.  We've been wanting to buy a nice (and new version - best version) Kinyarwanda Bible for each pastor.  This morning I asked how many people in their church didn't have a let's and it was between 50-70%.  So we did some sleuthing and put all our money together that we had an we have enough to buy the Bibles.  The Rwandan Bible Society shop is near the hotel and brand new.  They say it's open tomorrow at 8, but we'll see.  If we don't get them our leader here will.  We ate our last meal at Amicus Coffee & Pizza and really enjoyed it.  I

t's so crazy to think that God let's us have this kind of privilege.  Sleep has been really hard.    PRAY  - We get Bibles.  We finish well.  Our last day review really hits the spots they need.  That my sermon is more than a demonstration, but works in their hearts.  For travel as we take the bus down the mountain and get to the airport.  For travel mercies.  This has been a foretaste of heaven.
