It is very HOT in Bullhead!
Well, I am pretty much ready for summer to be over here...it's been a normal 115-120 this month everyday...
We do things differently here in th desert that i am sure seem very strange to others...I left my brand new $2.50 big-buttoned calculator in my car accidently one afternoon, and the sun warped it completely! My bible cover has a permanent cuvature from it's time in the sweltering heat. When you hate to get buckled because the metal is a gazillion degrees and you are scared to death that it might sear your skin.
We have a swamp-cooler...joy pure joy! For the vast majority of people that have no idea what a swamp cooler is...it's a big box, with a large squirrel cage in it...there are 3 large pads that go around it and those pads are sprayed on the inside with water, as the squirrel cage spins it pushes (what is supposed to be) cool moist air into our home. But seeing as how we have been having so much humidity it renders our swamper close to useless.. therefore it is normally 90-95 degrees inside our home..
But it's good missionary training.. *smiles*
Life's been going pretty good here in beautiful Bullhead City. My first attempt at teaching Spanish is almost finished...it's been a blast! It's had it's ups and downs. but there have been about 4 diligent students and I am so blessed to be a part of it. More people are going to join the class in a couple of weeks and I am very optomistic.
I might be able to teach an ESL class to the parents of the Jr. High that is just down the street...so that's also exciting. Lastly i'll be doing the water ministry on the corner where the kids get out of school. I am excited to see what the Lord would like to do with that.
Please pray that the Lord will continue to provide all of my needs...He's faithful.
You are in my prayers as well...Grace
