Day 8 - Monday

Today, we had a pick up softball game with some kids the girls met last week, or at least we thought it was going to be, but when we showed up, the entire girls and boys softball class was waiting for us on the field ready to play along with the coach! We had a blast for about an hour and a half playing softball first us vs. them and then with mixed teams.

Afterwards, we walked onto the campus and the school has arranged three lunches this week (we should actually call them feasts) for the freshmen class and we are the honored guests. Each one of us sat at one table and the freshmen sit with us 6 or 7 to a table to talk during lunch. The food was amazing and the number of dishes was more than we could count. Needless to say, there were some pretty interesting dishes.

After lunch, we went to two english classes before dinner and spent time talking and sharing our testimonies and the Gospel with the students. After a quick dinner in the square, there was a small class, so Jeff's group along with Nathan, Corey & Daniel stayed at the campus to work with that class while Henry, Landon & Travis went to play basketball with some of the guys they met earlier. Holly, Bethany, Sally & Jed went walking around town with some of their new friends. It was a full day and we are all really tired, but very thankful that we are being used fully.
