We had the morning off until 10:45 when we hoped on the bus to Garcia high school to speak in two classrooms. The students did great again! We invited many more students to the party tomorrow night and Saturday night.
We then drove over and hour to Fafe to speak to three middle school classes. They were great! The students didn't speak english well so we had our host staff interpret for us. That was a new experience for them. The middle school kids at the school treated us like celebrities between classes and all crowded around the American students. It was a neat experience. The teachers and administrators were so helpful and kind. We have felt so loved by all the people here in Portugal. The teachers took us into their staff lounge and bought us all water, coffee, juice... really whatever we wanted. It was great.
We drove home and enjoyed McDonalds for dinner! The girls wanted something familiar for dinner.
Tomorrow is a big day for us. Speaking in 6 classes and then hosting our first of 5 parties. Please pray that the parties will go well, many Portuguese students will come and we will build good relationship with the Portuguese students.
Thanks for your prayers.
Shawn
