Our Co-Teachers

It is 94 degrees in Bucharest right now and we are drinking lots of water and sweating quite a bit too.

Today I would like to take a moment or two to talk about three of our campaign co-workers. They come from Alabama and Tennessee and are working in the English Institute for the first two weeks. Kelly and Carisa are married and this is their second summer in Bucharest. Kelly is a student at the University of Alabama and is studying language. Carisa is a fourth grade teacher at a private Christian school. They are very fun to work with and have great attitudes. We love to laugh and talk. They also like to play games with us. Most importantly, they both have a love for God and a desire to serve him.

Sue is Kelly's mother. This is her first campaign and she is doing a great job. I especially appreciate her compassion for her students and her willingness to cry and comfort them. She is a real trooper and has had to put up with the jokes of a younger generation. She stands up for herself pretty well. That is probably because she is a high school science teacher in her regular life. Again, we love the love she has for the Lord.

As you can see, we have a very strong team this summer. We will miss Kelly, Carisa, and Sue when they head back to the states on Friday and we will look forward to getting to know our new partners this coming Sunday.
