Health Class

Lisa has been teaching Health class about once a week. The girls have been learning about personal hygiene –something that goes unnoticed and often forgotten down here. Teaching personal hygiene is very important, especially when you live with everyone in your class. Linda, who is down here with her husband doing evangelistic meetings, is also a nurse back home in Montana. She has been coming once a week and doing lessons on health as well, including drinking water, brushing your teeth, and eating and cooking with healthy foods. Her presentations are via computer and PowerPoint, and the girls have been very receptive. The presentations are in Spanish, making it much easier for following along. Linda has also asked who would be willing to give some of these presentations to other local people –we will see how it develops.
