26th Feb-3rd March Approximately


The week began, as usual, with the service in Deir el Quammar. This time we made something special: we brought from home all our old loo-paper-rolls, the girls painted pictures which we glued on them, filled them with rice and put aluminium foil on each end so that they had a selfmade new toy. The girls liked it very much and enjoyed to shake it during our singing round.
The service in Deir Salib and Antelias was as usual. Little John returned from his visit at home where he stayed after his operation. We are all very much looking forward for him to get better soon.
The weekend was very relaxed as usual. On friday night Moritzes mother arrived in lebanon for a ten days visit. Unfortunately his godmother, who was supposed to come as well on friday night forgot her passport at home and had to return from istanbul. We felt very sorry for her but fortunately the arrived on sunday evening as well.
