A Few of My Friends...

I finally remembered to take my camera along with me this week and snap a few photos of my new friends here. So now I can share with you who some of them are. It's definitely not exhaustive of the friends that I have here but a couple of them are who I spend most of my time with. This is Edna...she's one of the first girls I started a study with. And she is one of the girls that I have told will be a leader next semester. She chuckled a little but she agreed to it which is awesome! She's from Uganda by the way.
This is Angela...she's in the same study as Edna and also another one I've told will be a leader next semester. She chuckled as well...what is it with people laughing at the idea that they are going to be a leader?!? But she's willing as well and that's all I need to keep pushing it.
This is Agnes...she just started coming to the study I have with Edna and Angela. She's really cool too, has a lot of knowledge and is usually able to relate what we are studying with another passage...it's really neat.
This is Nancy...I just met her a week ago and she started coming to one of my studies where I am storying through the Bible. She's very talkative and has a lot of insights into what we are reading.

This is another Nancy...I met her a while back. She's really awesome too, I look forward to seeing her every Monday and am very sad when she can't meet. This is the room where I go and there is usually a lot of other people around, provides for some great opportunities. She and her roommates (there are 6 in her tiny room) will be coming over on Sunday for dinner...I'm so excited about this!
This is Stella and well she rocks! We just started meeting this morning and we are talking about the various women in the Bible so to kick it off we talked about Eve and everything she caused. She's very wise and has a lot of insight into what God is telling her. It has been pretty amazing to get together with her. She's from Uganda as well, one of Edna's roommates.
So these are just a few of the girls I meet with...these are the ones that I spend most of my time with. They are all really amazing and I know that God is going to do some amazing things through each of them. I'm just here to help them get out of the boat. :^)
