Thursday June 11th











Today Pastor Holslag reminded us how the Holy Spirit is with us on our journey. After our morning devotions, we felt ready to meet our responsibilities of the day.

The painting group returned to the dorm in Karklu and they completed the work on the LCC dorm. Over the period of three days, they painted a total of 13 floors, 12 sink areas and 8 desk units here. They completed all the jobs assigned to them. The maintainence supervisor, Nerjius, seemed to be pleased with the quality of the work. Kudos to Louise, Richard, Carasol, and Ashley!

The teaching group met with their students and had a very productive day also. They followed up on Chapters One and Two of the Obama book. The Tolerance and Diversity component focused on student viewpoints regarding "The Ladder of Prejudice". All groups were able to identify situations that could be placed on the ladder rungs of avoidance, discrimination, and physical attacks. The teachers could feel a sense of excitement in the classrooms because the students were eagerly awaiting their chance to perform for us in the evening at a "Ukrainian Culture" performance in the auditorium.
