How pastor Chet is show the Patmao Students about the world

This week that has passed, the students were to be dressed like they do in the Muslim countries. So after Monday morning they were told to put on long sleeve shirts and leave on the clothes they had already been wearing. That morning it was chilly so most of them already had on sweat shirts and pants. So now they were to put on sheets and what ever we had to give them to wear. Even some were given blankets. So during this last week they had to wear these clothes, (grab) during the time of coming on the site and during class. The next step was, they could not have a shower during this week. Then on Wednesday they put peanut butter and oil on their heads. I know this sound mean or even cruel. But during the time not one person complained or said no way. They all made it through this time. So this just shows how your prayers are working for them. Friday afternoon they got showers and back to normal clothes. I really give them a lot of credit and the wiliness to push forward.
That Friday they were given a lamb to take care of. They are to feed them and be their shepherd. Each student received one and were told how and what to do with them. I had a chance to talk with a couple of the students about caring for the lambs. I just told them to love on them and pick them up and carry them. This way the lamb will know how much you care for them. Plus during this time they were given a book called – A Shepherd Looks At Psalm 23. Written by Phillip Keller. I just finished reading it myself. It really is a good way to look at all the shepherds has to do. Just think about how our Lord is our Shepherd and all that He does to take care of us. Thank you for your time and I will be seeing you later on.
