Here at last

I have been in Poland now for eleven days and all is going great. I start school on Wednesday thus lesson planning is taking up most of my time. Good thing I love what I do, right. I will be teaching for about 4.5 hours a day, actually it is about 4 hours and 15 minutes. I only have three kids so that should be no problem. There are really seven kids on the team in all and they are all great and I am enjoying getting to know each and everyone of them. Other than school I will be working in the villages on Tuesday and going to a Coffee Conversation Connor (3C) with my roommate on Thursdays.
In the villages we work with groups of children teaching English as a Second Language (ESL). We are doing a program called Hero’s of the Bible to teach them two things at once. Bailey, my roommate, says it is going well and the kids really enjoy learning and doing the crafts. I will go and help out and maybe be able to work on a little Polish while I am there.
At 3C we go and just talk to those who come, in English. It is a great way for us to get to know Nationals and plant the seeds and open doors for them to know and understand who Christ is and why He lived on the earth. Last week no one showed up, but it snowed all day and we think the weather played a part in that.
I begin language classes on Friday. I only go for two hours a week for now because of school. Planning and teaching take most of my time, so language is worked into my schedule. I am glad it is on Friday because there is no school prep for Saturday. I will have homework in Language which will help me learn better and hopefully Bailey will be able to help me out as well as talking to nationals.
As far as how I am doing, I am great. I have not been too cold or to hot {:-)}. I have a wonderful pair of boots and a wonderful coat that keep me worm outside, and wonderful neighbors, who run their heat, which keep me warm inside. I turned the heat on the first night and go hot and it has been off since, actually we have to open a window at times. I am learning how to grocery shop and cook again because everything is different. I am learning where the stores are and what stores you go to, to find certain items. I have been riding the bus alone and it is not that bad as long as you know what time the bus comes and what stop to get off at. Then you have to walk to the destination, easy as pie. I am adjusting well to being here and not knowing anything and I know with time and God it will all become that much easier. I know God is always there and He will see me through anything. Thanks for your prayers and support.
