HAPPY RESURRECTION DAY TO ALL OF YOU! Our Lord nev­er slum­bers nor sleeps, so know that all believ­ers are cov­ered by HIS LOVE and PROTECTION 24/7! PTL! I hope all of you have a blessed week­end with fam­i­ly and friends!  NEWEST STUDENTS LEARNING TO READ DINO, our study hall teacher, helps all our pri­ma­ry school stu­dents with their lessons on Por­tuguese and Math. These small, more indi­vid­u­al­ized class­es real­ly enhance the learn­ing of our stu­dents, espe­cial­ly the first graders. All our stu­dents from Grade 1 to 7 have this “study class” for 1 hour, Mon­day to Fri­day, to help them real­ly under­stand their class­work, as well as what their home­work is try­ing to teach them. The High School has their own Por­tuguese and Math teach­ers 5 days/week to assist them with their school work.

I took this pho­to from a can­did posi­tion to not inter­rupt the 1st graders class. The stu­dents didn’t even know I was there. Look out kids, CANDID CAMERA BUNNY on the loose! Tee Hee!  BBC MOTORBIKES DEVELOP PEDAL POWER Bicy­cles have tem­porar­i­ly replaced the BBC motor­bikes due to an inter­rup­tion in the fuel sup­ply. This means the BBC Team can only serve 6 vil­lages on their list that are with­in 15 kms or 7 miles of our base.

BBC moves with PEDAL POWER!

Sad­ly, the kids in the far out remote vil­lages are tem­porar­i­ly not receiv­ing the Word of God. Thank­ful­ly, the cause of the inter­rup­tion is being resolved as I write, so hope­ful­ly, they should be able to reach all the kids by the end of April. In the mean­time, it’s PEDAL POWER that deliv­ers the Gospel of JESUS CHRIST to the lit­tle ones.
