I must admit that one of the things I miss a/b the States is football season. Now of course we do have football over here aka soccer. And the last time I was here I got really into it and became a fan of Manchester United (only b/c of David Beckham!). Now, I'm aching to see the big game tonite between the Canes and those dirty, rotten Noles! I brought my Canes mug to school today and have my banner proudly flying behind my desk. Of course my students are like "What's that orange and green thing?!" Oh how quickly they will learn!
Yesterday on the way to church I was riding in the car w/another staff member, Erika, who happened to find a French Christian radio station!! We were both blown away by the fact that a) we found a Christian radio station in Europe and b) that the Christian radio station was FRENCH! It was really cool to hear praise and worship songs sung in French and we also heard a bit of French preaching!
In class I always play satellite Christian music while the kids are getting settled in in the morning. Well today my favorite song ever "How Great is Our God" came on and my kids started singing along to it! "We know this one!" they were saying!!! I was so excited b/c only 2/5ths of my class even go to church! So I've decided that I am going to teach them this song for chapel and we are going to sing it next month for the rest of the students!
Well, Art is almost over and I have to dismiss my kiddies. Hope everyone had a great weekend.
I love you.
