Namibia Day 8

7th of September
This morning I got to wake up bright and early to head over to FHS at 7:00. It is amazing how excited these kids are to come to FHS everyday. Abigail, the woman in charge of the program was telling us that the kids go to the school and sit outside starting at 6:00 so that they will not miss a minute of school. It was a little chaotic as I assumed it would be on the first day. Its really neat because the program has different sections for different students. They have a program that gears towards children that can not be in school due to lack of a birth certificate, expenses etc. They also have an enrichment program for children to come to after their school and get extra help and tutoring in their subjects.
It was so encouraging to see the workers of FHS really love the children a lot of the teachers there teach 3 grades within one group of children. I found this so difficult and would not know how they do it, but they have a set pattern down that allows each child to be challenged within their own abilities. What is also really neat about FHS is that they have a food program that gives kids the opportunity to have a well balanced meal as well as a nutritional snack and powder drink through their program. This is very encouraging to see that these kids come early in the morning to get their educational, nutritional and spiritual fulfillment.
While I was there this morning I was very challenged by the question is why do I not have this same excitement or energy in the morning? Every morning God has blessed me with another day to live and if anyone knows me, they know how unfortunately in the morning, praising God is not the first thing on my list to do. I want to daily seek my spiritual fulfillment with the Lord like I would with nutritional or any type of fun fulfillment in the morning.
The rest of the afternoon was spent at Mugg & Bean and grocery shopping in the mall with Robert and David. I am finally getting used to this taxi business! I will finally see tomorrow if I am really a pro yet because I am off to work by the way of taxi tomorrow morning wish me luck! The later of the evening was spent with Alisa, Paloma, Rachel, Ronia and Mohab enjoying Ronia’s amazing Egyptian mac and cheese meal. I am praying for high energy and seeking the Lord for it tomorrow. Good night everyone!
