friends, flat tires and the beautiful everyday life

Ah, these last days have been a whirlwind! Tomorrow morning, Sharon M. (picture coming) and Maria H. leave, and today Elisa headed home. Greg and Cathie are back in Port, and we will be a lonely Ayars family tomorrow evening! There have been some fantastic friend moments these past days, but also a few precious God moments, which I'll share this week. But for tonight, I wanted to show you some highlights.

Lil was thoroughly spoiled by Aunt Mia and Aunt Elise...We went out to eat a few times, went to the pool on Saturday, and took them through lots of daily life...Evangelism, visiting friends, church, grading papers, English class, etc.

We had some good family friends over for supper one night, and worked on English, eating American food (well, Pizza and chocolate chip cookies)...very formal, serious picture.

...and a flat tire smack in the middle of town. We had lots of help, and Lily was totally overjoyed to hang out in a dump truck surrounded by thousands of people.

They also helped out with my Sakenville Evangelistic English Program on Saturday...

We also had a special two hour prayer service on Friday morning, which included a lot or song, prayer, and Matt gave the meditation. This was a really sacred time, and His presence was strongly felt...
