on thursday i taught the bible study for the leaders of theos. this was their first study in this setting and dylia's parents invited some other people who they thought might benefit (like Rodrigo's Dad). this group was quite intimidating- from professional businessmen, to young professionals, this group wasn't intellectually slow in the least. however, besides benjamin and debbie (dylia's parents), i'm the only one with a formal bible education and they are eager to learn.
i taught the study on ecclesiastes, which is a monster to begin with, but it went very well. i spoke in english, they spoke in spanish and most of the time, we all understood each other very well. we will be meeting every other week, so our next study will be in february and i'll be teaching on proverbs. a lot of the information i have was from Dr. John Crutchfield's class on wisdom literature and i feel it is valuable information for this group.
also, i start teaching at the lighthouse school on monday. i will be teaching drama on monday for kids ages 4-6, english on tuesday for kids 8-11 and english on thursday for kids 5-8. i'm pretty excited and it's been very helpful that i've had the chance to babysit for keegan and logan in the past because their ages fall right in this span of ages, which will be helpful as i try to consider what activities to do with them. thanks for your prayers!

Hey bro, I'm very glad to hear that your Bible study went well. What is the main theme of your study of ecclesiastes? I miss you much my friend! We've all been recalling all our favorite David Haron stories when we think of you, which is often, haha. I'll be praying for you my friend.
