We got up this morning and went to church at revival. After
the service we went to the head pastors house for lunch, it was great. Their
were trays and trays of fruit. Pineapple, papaya, watermelon, and bananas.
There was also some fish, which was whole. Then there was some peppers that DLaw
and Jon tried, they said it was pretty hot, like my mouth was on fire for
several minutes. Then we headed back to the farm and just chilled. I took a nap
in my hammock, then chatted with people on the porch until dinner. For dinner
we had an American dish. Spaghetti and meat sauce. It wasn’t quite like home,
but it was decent. Then we got to hear Russie’s Testimony. He told us about how
he grew up with a really strict father. Then we ended up in jail for several
years where he had an encounter with God. From then on he began to read the
Bible and talk to other cellmates about the grace of Christ. He was then
released by order of the prime minister, where he went home to Salah and began
to live for Christ. He studied theology in the Solomon Islands then ended up
working for island encounters as a property management. They have been a really
great family to get to know. I will miss them very much. Between the Pittmans,
Russie’s family, Shawn and Talei I really want to come back someday and see how
they are doing and how the farm is doing. I hope an opportunity presents itself
some time down the road.
