This week

by

This week our house became a movie theater – complete with snacks: Tang and animal crackers!  The early showing was Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.  The second showing was Planet Earth.  Both were much enjoyed!

Enthralled with Narnia

This week we studied Nahuatl.  We have a language evaluation soon, so we practiced as much as we could!

Checking words I have recorded to make sure they mean what I think they mean

This week I tried to haul water.  I went twice.  Once the water was just trickling.  I got about 30 gallons in 40 minutes.

Now, at the end of the dry season, there is very little water.

Meanwhile, I took pictures and talked to these cute kids in kindergarten.

The kindergarteners were washing up after their school lunch of beans and tortillas

This week I taught a little 7 year old visitor how to use my camera.  This was the result.

Not too bad for the first picture she ever took!

This week, Katie and I played Dominoes in order to learn how to teach others in Nahuatl how to play.  Sometimes studying is really fun!

Aska mishtokaró. Shihtal ini nih. -- It´s your turn. Put this one here.

And, finally, this week we stuccoed the outside of our house with our friends.  It was a long day!

Finishing up the last wall. Now, the rains won´t eat away at the adobe.

Well, that was the week in pictures.  Thanks for praying for us out here in Las Moras learning the language and culture of the Nahuatl people.  Please pray as we continue to build relationships and learn language so that we can clearly communicate God´s Saving Truth!
