Teaching Chickens, Eating Goats, Taming Softball Sized Spiders

listennow130 - Mozambique Audio BlogHey there friends, this is Scott reporting from the bush way out in the back country of Mozambique in Africa. Out here in the village it is a totally different way of life. It is very interesting teaching with chickens clucking all around you. The church here has no walls it is just a big room with a big thatched roof with wooden beams holding it up. It rained yesterday but it was warmer today. It was almost a 50 degrees difference between when we were in Tete up north and yesterday when it was raining. I am guessing it was about 60 degrees. Today when the sun came out it was much warmer. All day long is was probably in the mid 70’s. We ate another goat today and this one was a lot better than the one we ate in Tete. Tonight there is a beautiful black sky with all the star of the southern hemisphere. Stars I have never seen in my life. I noticed tonight as I was walking to my tent a spider about the size of my hand. It is interesting out here in the bush - there is no bathroom, no toilet no showers... you wash out of bucket and you have to be creative taking care of everything else. It has been really great being here. Two days of teaching just completed and we are just about ready to begin the journey back. I will give you more information soon. I just thought I would touch base. Thanks for all the prayers.
