Bonjour,
We had a good day at church. Today was Joe’s last day with the teen Sunday school class. Next week, he will start teaching the adult class.
We started out with eight in my class and ended up with fourteen by church time. Lenell helped me during church time. Gilbert participates a little more each week. Today, he sang the songs and said the verse. He comes home saying things in French; so, he is listening even if it doesn’t always seem like he is.
We thought that Danny had smashed his finger. But, we decided tonight that he has a worm under his fingernail. Joe was able to get the infection out tonight, but the worm wasn’t ready to come out yet. As Gilbert says, “Oh, poor Danny!”
Three people wanted to get baptized tonight. So, Joe and Romeo took those people to the Anyama church. Joe baptized them. Rebekah, one of the girls that got saved on Wednesday, was one of them. Her mother also got baptized. A teenage boy also got baptized.
A demain,
