marathon!

What a fun day J

It’s finals week, so the guys are making rotations between studying like crazy and taking part in ANY distraction possible so they don’t have to study. 

Maria, Elisa and I are having lots of flashbacks from our college days J

SO, to help them, this last week is also dotted with lots of end-of-the-year fun activities, like the soccer championship game today (2^nd year!), the “marathon” competition, which Matt, Lily and Azi led on the motorcycle around the compound, and the Coke contest. 

 

Thursday is the big end of the year luncheon and talent competition, and Friday is a day of praise.  Graduation is Saturday! 

My students still have one more final tomorrow and one Thursday, and the EBS board starts to arrive tomorrow morning.

Please be praying for students while they finish their tests, for fourth year as they prepare for graduation, for staff as we prepare for a large graduation ceremony, for the board and their meetings, for professors as they finalize their courses, and for new students as they prepare applications.  Oh man…it’s a bit crazy around here!

Add in Sofie’s cold and fussiness, Lily’s excitement over having Aunt Mia and Aunt Elisa here, lots of meals to cook, lots of visitors and lots of things to do before everyone leaves for summer vacation….whew! 

Having a blast this afternoon with the students and staff who have become our friends and family reminded us of the joy and importance of relationships over tasks!  Praying for joy in those relationships and in our relationship with Him over great accomplishments these next days!
