Hey guys,
Sorry about the impossibility of deciphering my last post. I will change the yellow to readable black and will conform to pressure and leave this one as it is.
It's a little weird being back in Albania but so far I am enjoying it, especially being able to use my
Albanian. Our first bible study went really well. Tony did a great job in leading it, especially as it was effectively chopped in half by time restrictions and he still managed to cover all his material though in less detail than we would have liked. The older Christians in the group were really positive about it, there were several people new to the church there and it was good for the older Christians to be reminded of the basics of the Gospel. Afterwards we had a drink for one of the girl's birthdays which was really good for us to get to meet and talk to people.
I have been quite challenged by having to use my Albanian up the front (at church) and praying aloud - I had never done either before! I make way more mistakes when I'm nervous but I still got the point across and people seem to appreciate that I can speak (ish) the language anyway. "Teaching" an English class yesterday was also a first for me.
Anyway, I have three people standing over me because we have to go.
Zoti ju bekofte,
Emilia
