I started learning Arabic with these women last year. I never thought that they would want to learn English too. Oneday our Arabic teacher came late in the class and so the women were getting restless since the time was passing by and they had to rush home after the class for household work. They asked me to teach them english while waiting for Ustaz (teacher). I said, "Do you really want to learn?" I stood up and taught them ABC... then to my surpirse they said that they want to learn english more. I thought they were not serious but they are. We have english class twice a week now. They can read and write alphabets and say their names in english. What an amazing opportunity to teach them something that they never dreamed of.

Unfortunately the borehole broke down and so we had to use the river water while the borehole is being fixed. In the picture shown - The orange juice looks cool and great but it was made out from the river water (the brown water bucket).

It's been six months since I last updated myself.
I am still in Sudan. The last few months have been great but challenging with so many transitions at our base (Yabus) - The missionary team and also the political inconsistencies.
However I see a new dimension in my minsitry focus. The Bible study with Uduk women, English class with the women in town mostly the Bartas. I have been having some solid visiting time, extraordianry converstations and encounters. I beelive that this is God's time. Revival is what we need right now. There's hunger and thirst for the truth.

Keep praying for Sudan Political situation, especially for the Blue Nile State.
