Today was busy but good. Francis came over this morning and we had our Chichewa lesson. Then, in the afternoon we did our big shopping trip. Maribeth needed to get some clothes so we stopped at some stores on our way to Shoprite. In one of the stores we got harassed by five or six guys. Even though we did not understand EVERY word they were speaking in Chichewa, we could read their body language and they were definitely patronizing us! So, Maribeth asked the guys if any of them were married. None of them were (surprise, surprise!). She told them that they are not going to get a wife until they learn to respect women and start treating women as well as they treat their mamas. The boys did not realize how disrespectful they were and sincerely apologized. The Holy Spirit was definitely working. The boys straightened out and the rest of the time we were their, they were respectful. The rest of the shopping trip was uneventful.
Starting our mbowola. Honestly, I have watched the show Survivor way to much,
I was a pro blowing on the flame, getting it to start!
