Spiritual Emphasis Week at Sakeji

We thank the Lord for the encouragement and help that Alan & Sheila Park were to all of us at Sakeji this past week. The meetings with the children followed the life of the apostle Paul, his life in the past, and then how he met the Lord, trusted Him as His Saviour, and his life as a Christian, living for God, and serving the Saviour.

Mr. Park is shown here dressed as Mr. Book, telling the story. It was often illustrated but in this case, one of the students was his object lesson.

At the end of the lesson, the children held golden “coins” from the treasure chest, with their memory verse on them, and recited the verse together.

We are all praying that the Word of God planted in their hearts will result in some coming to know the Lord Jesus as their Saviour.

Half Term Events

Half term at Sakeji is always a time to relax and have fun. Here are a few of the students enjoying themselves at the river (March 16-17th).

Swimming in the new pool followed by some sun bathing, was great too, since the weather was so nice.

In between times, there were other things to do like hanging upside down, and learning to do the splits! And of course, we all like sweets!

Special times for all!

Piano Recital

Wednesday, March 28th, was a special day for the piano students. Each student had an opportunity to perform in front of the whole school. They were a bit nervous, but all did very well!

Birthday Party from the Wild West

Last week at Sakeji we had the birthday party, to celebrate all the birthdays that term. The theme was the wild west. We had birthday cakes that corresponded to the western front with cowboys, Indians, buffalo, guitars, and even a little settler village.

What a queen!

You can just imagine all the exclamations when we uncovered the Queen of the Termites, whose only function is to produced thousands of termites to eat our papers, books, doors, cupboards, and anything else made out of wood in the dorm. There are a lot fewer problems with her removed, thankfully.

Life in the dorm at Sakeji

Do these pictures of life in the dorm now, bring back memories?
