Electricity or no electricity that is the question?

Some days we have electricity at the college and others we don’t. This makes planning lessons very hard as most of the presentations are on powerpoint, so I can see them on the IPAD – but they can’t on the screen.
I have been teaching discipleship this week and have 20 students in the class. They have been listening to me, other speakers via Itouch and doing some group work. It seems to have gone well and they have all enjoyed it.


The Principal asked what we would like for dinner. I replied a big mac or burger king.  It was a stupid question really as the only option is rice! I suggested samosa or chapatti – but we still got rice. The good things is we eat at the hotel in the evening and have rice – but normally I have fish to go with it and Linda has egg or cheese.


Linda has been out scaring the children and visiting schools, giving away pencils and books.  She has given a few speeches as well – she is getting quite accustomed to it now. She hasn’t been offered any more chickens yet.


I did a seminar at Kericho Town church this afternoon on Nehemiah. It was well attended with about 30 pastors from all over the area plus the students. The feedback was good  and we had a cup of tea afterwards and a chat. It lasted for 3 1/2 hours and now they are experts on Nehemiah. The Bishop, himself, phoned me this evening to thank me for the seminar – I wonder if he saw us on TV.


Tomorrow is the last day – College in the morning, drive back to Nairobi in the afternoon and then the 2330 flight home. It will be another busy day – I need a holiday!
