Cooking Kayoobi

We began Tuesday with a mission team Bible study. We discussed all of the scriptures that each of us have been reading personally. I encourage all of you to read these this week so that you can follow us in our prayers:
Matthew 9:1-8
II Thessalonians 3:10, 13
I Thessalonians 5:14-22
Romans 13:8-10
I Corinthians 13:1
Matthew 7:24-27
John 14:23
I Corinthians 3:10-15
I Corinthians 14:19
I Corinthians 2:1-5
Micah 7
Luke 7:36-50

We were put in charge of cooking for the weekly UpTen Lunch, held every week on Tuesday, as well as a special Barbecue supper. Menu for lunch: Texas Red Chili, Fried Potato Wedges, Rice, Veggie Sticks and Dip, and No-Bake Cookies. Our friend Eriko came over to help us prepare lunch.

Rebecca had bought what she thought was laundry detergent, and Eriko *just* stopped us from washing our dark clothes in bleach!

Lunch was a huge success! We had about ten students here for lunch, and we had opportunities to share Jesus with several of them! Praise the Lord!


After lunch, we played a game with the students called "Koom-Ja". (For those in the know, Bunny-Bunny Tokey-Tokey!)

For supper, the guys made barbecue chicken tenders and the girls fixed a salad and creamed corn. Evie made awesome cracker candy for dessert.

Supper was a little larger crowd, and we all played Koom-Ja after we ate. Then we all sat down and the students had opportunity to ask each of us whatever questions they wanted. We answered everything from "What is your favorite movie?" to "Why do you want to be a doctor?" to "What is your hobby?"
