Praise God for a Visa

Thank you for praying for my visa situation.

I have frequently told people about how visas are difficult to get for Bangladesh and how we expect to stay in country while the application process drags out for months. To God, and to whoever heard me talk about this and prayed. THANK YOU. On 27 December 2007, three days before my last visa expired, Luke Sircar who takes care of all our visa applications in Dhaka, got my passport with a visa valid to the end of 2008. Praise God for Luke, too.

Pictures of all grades

This is just to let you know that I have uploaded group photos of all the children at the school. Follow the link on the right.

Exams

The children in the picture are tasting or is it testing food. I am sure it is all very good.

During this week all the children at LAMB school are taking their semester exams. Exams are a big deal in this part of the world, and though we think of them as tools to help us tailor our teaching to the children, tools that help us see what the children have learned, many of the children and more noticeably their parents, think of them as tools to see how good the children are.

Please pray for the children that they will know they are valued and loved; for the teachers to be able to communicate to parents what the children have learned; for the parents and children, that they will have hope for their future regardless of whether some children have done better than their own; and for us all that we will be able to use what we learn to make the education even better.
