one more thing...
more on my trabajo... school

Let me just take the time to describe it more since I have time right now... I am sometimes with Kindergarten and sometimes with 6th grade.. but I want to expound on the Kinder.... thats what that call it here

In order to be a Kindergarten teacher here you must be able to be a zookeeper, policeman, and club bouncer.... the reasons follow
1. zookeeper.. the kids act like animals alot of the time.. so many have tried to bite me, they growl, scratch.... esp the boys.. they can be ferocious.. its kinda cute seeing a lil 5 year old crotched down like a lion about to pounce on you because you are their prey.
2. policeman.. to keep the peace.. i cant tell you how many times i have pulled lil boys off of each other.. these kids here are tough.. tattle tells to dot exist here in guat.. they dont cry... they just fight, fall, jump, kick, and scream... when they fall... they just get up with more energy...
3. club bouncer... you have to keep the kids in the classroom.. you lock the door to give yourself more time to prevent a child from escaping...all at the same time guarding the windows because they are easy to jump out of...

ps.. you have to be all of these at one time...
but most importantly to be a kinder teacher here i think it is important that one know how to be their mom also...
im pretty sure 95 percent of this class lives in the orphanage here at the mission.. its easy to tell.. they may be ferocious at times.. but they can be just as sweet... its true that they jump on you like a feline, but they love like a teddy bear.. and i can tell they are missing the love of a mom or parent...


more on my church.. the only boy that attends is my brother.. thats right.. even the pastor.. my mom here actually.. is a woman..
at first i was like woooooaa this is going to be interesting.
i personally dont think the bible teaches women should lead churches as pastors...

but my question is what is this church suppose to do..
there is no male leadership...
should they just not have church...

though the doctrine may be different than what i believe.. i cant help but admire how this church, this group of 7 or 8 women, have decided to still come together as believers and worship God... they dont have a male leader... but thats not an excuse.. its just another obstacle here on earth... who am i to judge or condemn that..

starting tomorrow school is out for a week.. im going to work in a tienda and bakery!! pretty stoked about it...
