Le Plaza Hotel

Still sitting around the hotel bar lobby. Meeting lots of new people.Miguel is still working on backing his up his data, then he willreload the OS for his Mac. Jeremy is connecting to the world, havingvideo talked on Skype with his wife in London a while ago. I'm waitingfor a missionary friend who used to work with my mom to arrive.

We met a young freelance photographer who is helping Miguel with hiscomputer. He has some great photos. David gave permission to post hisblog: news.davidsperry.com . I like his B&W photos.

Yesterday was the last day of the national three days of prayer. Iwasn't feeling well, over tired and achy, so I stayed back to rest.Claudia & I ended up going to church on the compound. Last weekend Ifigured that there were over 300 people at the service. Yesterday wefigured that there were over 800 people due to the weekend of prayer.

Claudia and I joined the service at about 08h00 and finished about13h00. The majority of the service was worship & praise music mixedwith a lot of dancing in worship. It was so cool to see everyonesmiling and happy, worshiping with their whole beings. We readtogether Ps 148, 47, then 148. The sermon was based on Eph. 5:1-2.

After the service we chatted for an hour and the I finally took thatnap I really needed. Sleeping was tough in the heat without the fanson to cool off, but, I must have been exhausted as I slept 3.5 hoursin the hottest time of the day. I was awakened for dinner: rice withsmall brown beans and a little bit of chicken & sauce.

After dinner we sat around with a couple of the teachers from thecompound, teaching each other English & French.

Well, heading out in a bit to shoot some photos, buy some artifactsand go by the ED to see if I can find the hat I forgot there.
