So a quick update- We had week 2 of sidewalk sunday school.. focused on God's gifts, then week 3 was about anger, which just finished on Friday. So yea SSS has been awesome, the team are bonding more and getting more confidence. This last week we had a birthday theme which was lots of fun.. I even got a cream pie in my face! Please pray for this weeks lesson, about guilt, that people will be released from the burden of guilt as the gospel is preached this week over the city.
Since last post there have been two indoor sessions which happen on Saturdays. Above shows praise time. We have three sessions like this each Saturday.....It is amazing to be part of it. My bus routes are good fun.
Please pray that they will increase, that we will have full buses next weekend and that I can establish a significant over the kids who need it most.
Other than this have been busy with church and various other events. It was my birthday on Friday.. halfway to 46...! had a good day, though really busy and crazy. Thanks to all who sent cards, gifts and well wishes. I was really spoiled! I had my bed decorated after midnight on Thursday and received a cake from my family.. which was amazing- american icing is goooooooooood.
Doing something with some people tomorrow to celebrate!
and the only negative thing about this post... LICE.. of the head variety. It seems it has broken out among the 30 girls.. with at least 33% contracting this horrid condition, myself included, although I only was blessed with the nits! so this weekend has been mental, everyone de-nitting their heads and washing and drying ever fabric they possess! So i made this shocking discovery on my birthday.. quite humourous..
As it is late I am going to get sleep.. but will leave you with a funny comment a kid said to me.. "how can you see? I mean your eyes are blue, so how do you see?"
I had to educate the little love about the pupil and iris.. thought it was quite cute..
anyway.. over and out
thanks for all the prayer.. I am indebted to you all.. keep seeking the Lord, and he will be found by you.

Have you told all your team mates that it was you that brought the nits to them in the first place??? I bet you're going to start the line that they only go for clean hair and all that nonsense. We know the truth!! Keep up the good work, and let us know if there are specific prayer requests. Andrew and your nit-free nephew
