On the actual Valentine's day we had a party here at the mission. It was really fun! I made heart shaped brownies with dream whip (a kind of whip cream in a package) and cherries on top. They were quite good. We decorated the dining hall in red and hearts and played pin the heart on cupid. It was fun watching all the little kids and adults play!! There are some pics below of the party.
The Bible curriculum is coming along. This Thursday we have an education meeting where we will validate weeks 1-5 of the curriculum and hopefully it will pass and we will be able to get it translated after that. This week I have been down with a cold so I haven't been working too hard. I think it's God's way of getting me to slow down and rest! It's so hard because all the missionaries work so hard that I want to do the same.
I am doing a bible study called Knowing and Loving God and today's lesson was about God's power and energy. It was a great reminder of how strong God is and how when I am weak He is my strength. On a day like today it is wonderful to know that God will give me just enough strength to complete my tasks for today. Praise the Lord for His amazing strength!
