since arriving in korea, i've had my eyes peeled for new friendships. as i've mentioned in many other posts, we've met some really great people and we're so thankful for them. peter has made good friends with people from and outside of work. i've met several wonderful military wives and ladies from outside of the military as well. lots of quality people.
a new development is a womens' bible study which will meet in our apartment every friday night. because most of the women who come are english teachers at private schools, they work really strange schedules where they teach until after 10 pm! for that reason, our bible study doesn't begin until 11:00 pm. We go for about 2 and a half hours. we had our first meeting last night to get to know one another. it was great fun. about 15 women attend, so it's a pretty large group. i'm really excited about studying with these women and getting to know each of them. i'm sure i'll post more about our study as it continues.. (if you live in the daegu area and want to come, let me know!)
Wow! You don't end until 1:30am! That is HARDCORE!! I am so glad you have the opportunity to meet some new women for support and friendship I will pray that God does wonderful things in that group!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Laelia! It is pretty hardcore, but we fight the fatigue with cupcakes, cookies, and other sugary snacks!
