Well it's been another amazing day!!  This morning we got to sleep in and didn't have to be at breakfast until 5:15.  Wahoo!!!  We went to a very rural school in who knows where and for me it was the best yet.  I spoke in front of about 900 students with the gospel message and it was just an amazing experience.  I've been told that when you go to Africa you'll never be the same and I'm starting to see why.  The students at the school today were very poor but they didn't seem to care.  They were all smiling and gobbled up every ounce of attention we could give them.  They love taking pictures and being in selfies.  I spent most of the day leading the bible study and teaching.  I still can't get my mind around the fact that we can speak so openly about the gospel in the public schools here.  This afternoon I got to go on a hunt and although I didn't get to shoot anything with my bow, I shot a beautiful Kudu with my camera.  It was an amazing day and I can't wait till tomorrow!!
