Well, it is getting on into the month of August and we will be having our annual church camp on the 25th with Bro. John Rice from Alabama. One of the elders from our supporting congregation, Roanoke Church of Christ is coming with him and I am excited to meet with him about future plans. The students are getting excited and we are trying to get organized. There is so much going on and I am teaching 6 - 7 classes a day. Sophy is beginning to pick up some of what I am doing and is able to help me out, but he isn’t ready for “conversation” yet. Yes, I said conversation. I have learned that some of the students know more than they are saying, so I am trying to “pull’ it out of them. We also have then saying “phrases”. For example, which also teaches manners, they would say, “May I have a drink of water, please?” The same with the bathroom. Now, they are having to say, “I have decided that I want to be reliable.”
