This morning we got up early again, and 9 of us walked down to a Presbyterian Church for the English service. The service started at 8:30 and ended around 10:30. During the service we sang three songs, three choirs preformed, and we were introduced to the church. It was a little intimidating to walk in front of a congergation of about 300 Malawians to introduce ourselves individually. The sermon was about giving 10% of your harvest to the church. And people did just that, by the end of the offering time, there were eggs, and rice, and maize, all kinds of things scattered about the pulpit.
After church we returned home to Annie's worked on various things. Some people studied, some prepared for tomorrow, others napped and I made a card for the North Carolina A & T leader who's 60th birthday is tomorrow. Tonight we (well the people of Annie's) are throwing her a huge party with two cakes! I hope the cake is good, I'm really looking forward to it.
I'm a little sick of the food here, we have breakfast and dinner at the same place everyday, and it gets expensive and old. We are not allowed to eat any of the raw vegetables or salads because of the pesticides they use here in Malawi. I can't wait to come home for the food aspects of America. Also for the fast internet connections. It takes forever to upload anything here, even just webpages.
