English & Pie! Pie & English! English Pie! Pied English Pae!

Tonight was the first night of English class at Guadalajara.  And I made pie.

Look at that.  The top is fully intact.  The innards are in.  Even the edges are edible! The apple part was apple-cinnamon-yumminess.  I hereby deem this pie delicious.  And on this momentous occasion of making an edible pie, I would like to take this moment to thank Pam.  Thank you Pam.
Here's Victor, an energetic, super sweet kid, picking the crust out of the pan.

Anyways, besides the pie, the first class was pretty good.  We were a little short on numbers, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.  Plus there's a good chance we'll have more next week.  Pray for us as we start a new semester.  Pray that I will teach well.  That my teaching will draw students to the church, especially those who don't already have a church home.  Pray that Pastor Carlos would be able to build strong relationships with the students.  Pray that the students will be ready to learn about English and about the Lord.  

Crazy Kids

This is Igor.  He's one of my English students at the International School of Carpina.

Friday was Shopping Day.  The kids used their merits to buy little toys and games and such.  So, among other things, Igor bought this toy frog.  He came outside to where his friends and I were playing Crazy 8's and began telling us about his new friend "James Podoski da Silva".  I begged him for ten minutes to let me take a video of him introducing his friend.  He finally agreed.
