A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words

August 7, 2010 Posted by Beate Rufft 2 Comments

We all know that a picture is worth a thousand words, so here are the thousand words in some photos I took.

Devotion in the Mornings or Church on Sunday

 

Then we have summer school

 

Then we have play time…

 

…Or we get haircuts..right Judel…

 

Judel…well…has his own stlye of playtime

 

Market Day is Wednesday

 

We need to go to get more pipes

 

Ti Luc thinks these pipes will do just fine

 

The people dry their rice right on the road

 

Mariah is buying our water

 

Sweeping out the new house for the future missionary couple

 

The pediatric area at Albert Schweitzer Hospital.

 

We got to see some newborns

 

Sometimes at night we go for a walk along the canal

 

 Or we hire taxi’s to visit friends

 

Marta and Beate at her house

 

Singing songs for bedtime at the children’s home

 

Getting security ready. Hey, only ONE bullet!!!!!
