Back to normal, again. It's always a bit strange when you have a different routine for a week or so, but it's nice to be working with the children again. Dave has really noticed an improvement in his understanding of Portuguese when the children shared about their weekend on Monday. He also tried a new technique when it was his turn to share about his weekend, he explained that he didn't know all of the words and asked for their help. This really made a huge amount of difference, instead of laughing at the words he got wrong they were helping him.
We have also started with new discipleship groups, the idea of these is getting to know other workers better, sharing difficulties, praying for one another and generally encouraging one another to grow. We meet every Friday, and are beginning to get to know 2 other Dutch girls who are new workers here, plus we have another guy from this house who we already know quite well.
