Drowning Thoughts

This week Harald Gorges is away. He was at a Pastor's conference in Palau and then went to visit the church in Yap. While he was gone I promised to proctor an exam for him. Basically I just handed out the test and collected it. Brad's class is in the Library before it opens. When I taught last year, there was no other class at the same time. As I was sitting there trying to read, it was very hard to concentrate.... because I could hear very clearly the lecture of the professor in the next class room. It must be hard focusing while trying to take a test on a completely different subject.

Although after awhile I could no longer hear the teacher next door. It started to rain. The rain was so loud that it actually drown out the voice of the other teacher..... it is so loud at times - it sometimes makes it even difficult to think. If you watch the very short video - all the noise that sounds like static is rain on our tin roof. Although we are hoping to add insulation in the roof to provide some sound proofing from the noise of the rain, this video is more to display a prayer need for PIBC. We are in desperate need of more and better class space. We are hoping to raise funds to start a building which would have better class rooms and office space for our increasing staff.
