Having several quiet days in a row at my Institute office has been nice. I've completed a sermon series from 1 Thessalonians, wrapped up the Institute grading from the first half of 2009 (Homiletics, Romans, and Apologetics), and started revising a pre-Institute course that the pastors will be teaching in their churches later this fall. Lord willing, we'll be accepting a new class of students in February 2010, our first since January 2007. In August, the current group of students will be back in town for a two-week course on the doctrines of God, the Scriptures, and maybe Man and Sin. I hope to begin revisions on these courses next week.
Ferdinand made his first flight on an airplane on Wednesday. He went to Dar es Salaam in my stead to pay the annual fees for our organization. He was supposed to be there and back in a day, but I haven't seen him yet today to confirm that he made it back.
Craig has been riding out to Shadi with me every day on the back of the Yamaha to work on his Institute and Tumaini projects. He has deftly managed holding on to things like a gas can and circular saw while we've dodged herds of cows and goats on the bike.
