Day Two

What an incredible evening we have just had. The day was pretty good,too! We do put in a very good day's work, never knew I could work so hard for someone else and be so excited to do so! We have been doing very thorough cleaning and making up of participant's rooms, and folding more laundry than I ever thought existed! Much like B&B, but a much bigger scale.

Tonight we had a poolside dinner,followed by a praise $ worship service indoors, by the class participants <60 ladies, nearly all dressed in their national dress, so colourful. As each of us volunteers, 30 men & women, came out to the huge kidney shaped pool, we were escorted to our seats lined up along the poolside, by a few of this session's participants. Facing us were the appropiate # of the class, and after some speeches, they proceeded to very tenderly wash our feet! as the other participants sang "Make me a Servant". There weren't very many dry eyes out there, as they each came to hug us, and thank us for serving them. I will never forget this gesture!

Tomorrow should be our day with the afternoon off, maybe we will enjoy the pool. It has been very warm and humid. Our beautiful room overlooks the pool, and tall palm trees, with some mountains not far off. We have air conditioning in our room, but most of where we work is not. But what a priviledge to be able to be here, serving God!
