Beginning of School

We have been teaching in school for about three weeks now. We have been keeping busy and also we haven't had much internet access (we now have internet in the house) so we hadn't much chance to keep up the blog.

Rebecca and Sanda have been teaching science- hands on with experiments and cooking/life skills class. Mark, Mariana and Shannon have been teaching english language and are starting some math and computer classes with the boys transition house. Classes have been going well, we have had to make (and still are making) minor schedule adjustments, but that is fairly common and the beginning of the year.

Our basic schedule is:

Sunday late afternoon- leave for Rosiori (2-3 hour drive)

Monday- Mark- Boys transition house, english at kids apartments

-Rebecca- Boys school, youth group (Mark is there too)

Tuesday- Mark- Boys school, Rebecca- Boys transition house

- evening return to Bucuresti/Snagov

Wednesday- Mark- afternoon: V. orphanage, youth group (Rebecca has day off)

Thursday- Mark- V. orphanage morning, rest of day off

- Rebecca- V. orphange, P. orphanage, youth group (yes a very full day)

Friday- Staff Bible study, evening AlphaOmega Bible study

Shoes! We gave out shoes to all the orphanages we currently work in. Thanks to a 14 year old boy, Andrei, who was adopted from Romania to an American family. He raised all the money to help out the kids and came on a short term team with his mom.
