Okay. No day was the same, so the title of the blog is misleading. There were no typical days. That being the case, I invite you to come along and see what happened one day at Bible School. After our general session in the morning, we split into 1st year and 2nd year classes. The first year class was heavily in session with our new translator (Joseph) when a big beautiful black rooster walked in like he owned the place! After looking around to see that we were about our own business, and that there were no chickens there, he walked out the door. This shot barely caught him.
After telling the Bible story, pastors went outside to study the pictures and tell the story to each other. They worked in groups of two or more. Every day we taught two Bible sessions in the morning after the opening general session and two in the afternoon before the closing general session.
In the closing general session, Charleeda brought olive oil from Jerusalem and led the session by anointing each pastor and teaching the passage in James 5:13-16, “Is any among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? let him sing psalms. Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. Confess your trespasses to one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.” Each pastor was presented with a small bottle of anointing oil. After class, the pastors began anointing each other. Precious time.
