Community Development

An other crazy week! I was sick for the beginning of it so it was really hard keeping up with the work and having the right attitude. You know how it's so easy to fall into self pity! Most of my free time therefore was spent on sleep. I was still able to go to most lectures and the subject is a complex but compelling one. It's all about the way in which we, as outsiders, should come into a foreign country and bring long-lasting development. So you can imagine how vaste that is! And it's so easy to make mistakes, grave ones too. We don't know much about anything in the culture. It's so important to come as learners and not be the ones with the answers. It must be the local people who learn skills and rely on God. Your role is mostly prayer, education, empowerment, and encouragement.
This weekend I'm keeping busy with work and visitors to the Lodge which i'm really excited about. A friend and my grandparents are coming :)
