PILAT - Arrival

It's a fun and exciting time here at PILAT. The participants to the program are all arriving. They're going all over the world. It's SO exciting to know that the Word is being shared. There are about 27 adults in the program and 23 kids! One family has 3 kids under 2.5 and one on the way! Amy and I don't know how they do it.

Amy and I spent the bulk of the day today settling into our room, scanning and sending Amy's Russian homework to her professor and drilling vowel sounds. It's really great that we'll be able to help so many people take their first steps to learning a new language to share the best news there's ever been.

The main gist of the whole PILAT program is to learn how to share important things with people, you need to share them in their heart language. This is the language that is usually their first language and the one that connects not just in their heads, but in their hearts.

It's going to be a really busy time though and we were hoping for it to be a bit slower than things have been recently. Please pray for good sleep, some rest, and relaxation.

Tonight we already have a great opportunity to see one of Amy's best friends from college. Jaci is coming down from Denver to Palmer Lake to visit with us!
