Jesse: Meeting officials

We received the District Commissioner’s wife and the local head chief’s wife this morning out at the bush camp. They spoke to us about working in culturally appropriate ways to teach our African friends about Jesus.

The ladies asked us a few questions about our lives: whether we were married and had kids. We asked about how they had met their husbands. Some of the girls had baked cookies and some had decorated the room. We talked and laughed together. It was definitely a good girl time.

Later in the day we went through practical training like killing and cooking a chicken, driving lessons and car maintenance.


Melodie bakes cookies for our honored guest in our outdoor "kitchen."


The District Commissioner's wife explained to us about politics in Africa, and about her life.


The children wrote and illustrated a book to present to the guests.


We danced and sang together as we bid our guests goodbye.
