I never thought that waking up at 5:00 am would be easy, but these last few days it has. Everyone goes straight to bed as soon as they can-- usually 8:00 or 9:00 pm.
It hasn't rained this morning and I heard someone say they thought the sun would come out. Sounds like the cool air that comes with the rain could be absent today.
This is the last full day of orientation . Looking back, it has been very beneficial and fun. I am ready to get "on site" and get to work. We've covered evangelism training, cultural testimony workshops, basic language skills, security protocols, house church bible studies, cultural foods and traits, and we've developed friendships. It kind of stinks because we won't see these people again until debriefing.
I've already had to step out of my comfort zone and I've only been in country for 3 or 4 days. Everyone back home would get a kick out of the skit that my group performed. We had to come up with a group name (our group consists of 2 orphanage teams and 3 media people) and someone suggested the Red Sticky Lemurs. Don't really know why... Our skit had to revolve around our group name so we danced crazily on stage saying "boom shock-a-locka, shock-a-locka; we're the Lemurs and we're gonna rock-ya, rock-ya". Skit night-- fun stuff.
Tonight, my same group is supposed to lead worship for everyone (every group rotates). Fortunately we had Ben, a media guy, that could play the guitar. So far we've decided on "All in All", "God of this City", "Amazing Love", and finishing with the Doxology.
