So yesterday was really neat! What happens once a week the women and children have a shower, and another day the men have showers. Yesterday the women got to shower! It was a really neat experience. Each family took turns in the shower, the children had crafts, and had lunch. But what really made me happy was getting to play some songs for them. I sang "Before The Kind" and "This is the day (in farsi). I have been in the mood to play the guitar ever since I got here, which is weird cause I never really was in the mood back home. Welllll I met this little girl name Sojeya. She was 12 and absolutely a darling. She asked if I could teach her how to play the guitar, and you know what? I did! Then when we went in the other room to do crafts, She made me a paper flower!!! AND then taught me how to make them!
She was a darling! But I thought to myself, it was soo neat to see that not only could I teach someone something new, but they could teach me something as well. Soo neat.
Well today I will be going to my mentors bible study, and after that, I will be heading to Attiki to visit the Refugees in their homes. This will be such an amazing experience. I must say these women are the sweetest people I've ever met. So happy about life, in the midst of such struggles. I just pray that I can learn something, be humbled, and truly broken in the midst of helping them, that I could learn something so beautiful from these wonderful people. Thank you all for your support and prayers! It's such a blessing! May God bless you on your day today :) talk to you soon :)
