Bonjour,

Church went well today.  Joe taught the adult Sunday school class.  Romeo preached in the morning service, and Joe helped with the older children’s junior church. 

Lenell and I had thirteen in our class today.  Lenell taught the lesson today.  She did a good job.

It was another hot day today.  Joe made lunch when we got home.  The boys and I took a nap.  Joe did some work in the office.

Joe preached this evening.  After church, we had Lenell and Tammy over for supper.  Tammy came to Anyama this afternoon.  She and Lenell are going to go out to Bassam for a couple days starting tomorrow.  Gilbert was so excited to have company.  He didn’t want them to leave.  Lenell read a couple books to him.  When he heard that they were about to leave, he got the longest book that we have off of the shelf.  Lenell read one story out of it for Gilbert.  He still didn’t want them to leave, but he got over it.

A demain,
