Day 56
Today I went to Tegucigalpa for the day. I was supposed to do some much needed grocery shopping, we had to take a trip to the doctors office and did not have much time to shop. I think that I have a parasite in my body. I took medicine for it so hopefully it will go away soon. This week has been a pretty long week for me. I had to give the students that failed their exam a retake. It is a bit discouraging when my students are unable to tell me that banana in Spanish is also banana is English. I just have to keep doing my best and remember that I am not here for myself, but for God. We are still in the clinic 24/7, which is hard because there are only 4 volunteers here. I believe that a team is coming to Emmanuel soon which will be nice. The children enjoy it when teams come, it gives them a chance for a change of pace. It has been raining consistently everyday, which is great because it is so hot during the day. I hope that everyone is doing well, and I miss you all. Thanks for the prayers and support! God Bless, Lindsey

Hey Lindsey! I loved the video! Please post them again. I have a friend who went to Africa and got a parasite, and I think it's pretty easy to get rid of if you take some strong antibiotics. Sounds like you are getting a lot of medical experience! That's great! If you ever need some ideas for vocabulary games, I have some things that work. Sometimes quizzing the kids before the tests with games helps, as well as going over the tests afterwards. Candy rewards work well too. Maybe have them make flashcards with pictures of the words...incorporate some art! It will be fun. You will get the hang of it in no time. Keep up the good work!!!
(Send me your email address, and I will write more...)
