A couple Thursdays ago we had the privilege of driving to St. Louis to pick up Seema...a girl from Nepal who is studying at SEMO this semester. Sarah and I took a couple of girls from the college group at church and we made a little road trip of it! We had a great time and have enjoyed getting to know Seema so far this semester! She has never been to the US before and it's so interesting hearing her perspective on the differences between our countries and cultures. She is a believer and it is so encouraging watching her worship with us at church and bring some of her new Nepali friends with her, many who are Hindu.
The girls and I picked up Seema and her new friend Prajeeta one day and took them up to campus to get registered for classes. Then we took them to get groceries and it was Seema's first trip to Wal-Mart!!!
Prajeeta was a good sport and was fast friends sitting in the back with Emory! They loved hanging out with the girls!
Helping lead the college group at church has been amazing! It has been such a blessing and the college students have been such a blessing to our girls and to our family. We have a weekly girls Bible study on Thursday nights and several of the girls who come are gymnasts at SEMO. We had such a good time watching them compete one night! Brynn really wanted to go see Miss Ashley and Miss Lauren but when we got up there she was so nervous that she wanted me to be in the picture too!
They have this fun poster you can stick your head through and Brynn thought it was so funny!
Emory had a little too much fun playing with some arcade games on Saturday...
We were getting ready for bed one night and trying to read our books and Bible story together and it turned into an impromtu silly show! OH MY!
I'm sure the college kids get tired of my silly games but we always do something fun or crazy to get the lesson started...one morning we were playing a minute to win it game with noodles and it was so funny! (Complete with the Rocky soundtrack playing of course! HA!)
Sunday night fun at Grandma and Grandpa's!
