Typical Week?

Some people have been asking me what a typical week looks like for me here, and I have to say that in my two months here no 2 weeks have been alike. A few tings are starting to become more fir in my weekly schedule, at least for now, but there are a lot of variables. But in an attempt to answer that question, I thought I'd post a series of daily summaries for a week. I'll start with a summary of this weekend.

Saturday, May 29
Went with Robin and Emily (teenage girl from states currently visiting Robin and Charlie) to visit a lady from our Thursday afternoon group. She and her family have recently moved to different housing, and it is too far for her to continue coming to that study without transportation. Instead of just quitting, she asked Robin if she could start a new study at her new apartment. So, we went to visit her and take her invitations for the new study that she can give to other women in her apartment complex. When we arrived, two of her little girls who I have quickly grown to love immediately began to take turns jumping into my arms and climbing on me.
From there we went to our storage building to sort through some resources. I pulled out a few things that I thought I might be able to use with the kids over the next few weeks. I spent the rest of the afternoon at home researching, planning, and organizing crafts and stories for the kids.
Saturday evening I went with Robin and Emily to a meeting of women from several different Baptist churches. This group of women have begun to form an organization to work together on big ministry and outreach events. This meeting focused on planing a women's conference to be held in a month.

Sunday, May 30
I attended a local Mexican Baptist church that was original started by Robin and Charlie and are now on their own. On the way home I stopped at a couple of stores to buy supplies for the kids' crafts I am planning.
Sunday evening I attended Robin and Charlie's house church. Afterwards, I told the young man I described in my last post that I had seen his prayer card and really liked it and wondered if I could have one. He agreed, and I joked that if he couldn't bring me a copy then I might have to steal Robin and Charlie's.
Before and after the evening service, I spent more time preparing for upcoming kids' activities and making a list of things I would like to accomplish on Monday.
