This morning, I got up, read my Bible, got ready, and then took all of my Bible Institute stuff to the dining room to study. I sat down around 7:40 A.M. and did not get up until 9:50 A.M. In that time period, I was able to get caught up on a few classes and studied up in other classes. I would have continued studying, but I needed to get stuff ready to go.Β 

We left the house at 10:15 A.M. for Bible Institute. When we got there, I got the coffee and hot water ready, while Bro. Ruckman and Bro. Nathan talked with the architects for the four-story orphanage. We are planning to have the ground breaking for the orphanage within the next ten days. The orphanage will be on the church property; and once built, it will hold 38 boys and 38 girls. It will also have a school and many more accessories.Β

Missionary on Fire Podcast

Preserving the Legacy of Faithful Missionaries

The Missionary on Fire podcast features interviews with veteran missionaries, classic sermons from the field, and stories of God’s faithfulness across generations. If you love the heart behind these stories, you will love the podcast. New episodes regularly.

While they were outside, I was able to make up a quiz I had not done; then we started English class. All of the class periods were good, but my brain was already tired from all the reading and studying I had done in the morning; so, it was really hard for me to focus in the classes. Once we had finished all the classes, Bro. Ruckman and I headed home. (It was just the two of us because the others had gone home earlier in the day.)

When we got home, I went to my room and worked on reading a book. I had been reading this book off and on for the past several weeks, but I was really struggling to understand and remember what I had read. So, this afternoon, I found the book on YouTube. The book is called The Trail of Blood. By listening and following along, I was able to understand the book with much more detail, and it turned out to be a really good book.Β 

I did not finish the book right away. I took a break for supper; then, while the adults were talking after supper, I put noise cancellation in and was able to finish the book!!! After I finished the book, I sat in the living room for a few more minutes and then went to my room. The adults are having good fellowship; so, I found some time to get away and let my brain cool off. It had been going non stop all day, except for when I fell asleep in class. 🀣🀣 (Not really) I wish I could have though. πŸ˜‚

I am  now in my room typing the blog. It is currently 9:02 P.M., and I am highly considering hitting the hay early. Well, I think that’s all for the day. 😁
