Things Are Hoppin'

Somehow we squeezed in a Bible study yesterday! 3 of the boys on the right are from the Kekchi corner of the village. They had never been before. Ever since the Kekchi part of the community saw us at the wake and that we were accepted by some of them, now we are accepted by all! When Jimmy drove through announcing the Bible study they all came out and waved!

Here is Amy with some of the girls that come.

Who is the fastest painter ever? AMY! Between the construction going on in our yard for the NH Bible study, the twins, and just normal daily interruptions, there is no way we would be able to get everything done if Amy wasn't so committed to this! Jimmy sketched out the basic designs on the tarps, gave Amy a paintbrush, and she ran with it! Here is our Jerusalem scene almost finished.

Practice has been going great! We have a good group who really don't know what a drama is, but want to participate!

Here they are practicing Jesus healing the lame man.

CRAZY ITEM OF THE DAY: I would say it is 3 Gringos thinking that they could put on a drama in 6 days, making sets, props, costumes from scratch with people who many of whom can barely read and have no idea how to follow a script, but that is normal for us! So here is the real CIOD: This was in the road on the way home last night. It is hard to tell in this picture, but the diameter is that of a baseball bat!
