We went out deeper into the bush today and visited a couple who were investigating the church and helped the missionaries teach them. They are very interested and have great faith in the Lord. I think they will get baptized within the month. The people here are very willing to listen to the gospel and they have studied the Bible all their lives.
The man we visited with is building this building and wants to have the church use it as a chapel so that they can have a branch which is closer to their homes. Now they have to travel about 40km to church and it is expensive for them to ride the tro tros. It will be up to the mission president if it will be accepted or not as a church building. This is one of the cleanest pieces of land around. He really takes pride in his property.
This is an example of a one room mud hut that we see out here in the bush. They don't have anything so they don't need a very big house to store all the stuff they don't have. We like coming out into the bush in this area because it is very pretty and quite deep into the jungle. The only bad thing is the road which has no lack of pot-holes. We even get to see some small mountains so it reminds us of home, (sort of).
