Well, it is almost a month since we arrived in Aizawl. We have just gotten our email up and running, after a rather frustrating month of trying to communicate. We live in the staff quarters. A large, four room cement apartment has been prepared. We are blessed with a bathroom off each bedroom--since two apartments were joined, a living room and a kitchen. There are small hot water heaters in both bathrooms, as well as flush toilets and hand-held showers. We have everything we could want, and the people are so kind to us. The carpenters are still here repairing whatever we ask them to do-- building shelves, putting in extra plugs, etc. The children have adjusted very well. They are in school here and are doing well. They are very popular and do not lack for attention. They are doing well in classes and are learning Hindi and Mizo. Andrew has homework every night in Hindi, mostly learning the alphabet.
We have been going to a little church in Aizawl. Ray is preaching every Sunday now and I am teaching the Sunday school. They are very happy to have us to help them out. Services are mostly in English, but sometimes, if there is someone there who does not understand, they then translate.
