In January, we had our first adult reading competition. Many adults participated, and did a great job reading out the verses they were given. The winner was a grandma, Rruta, from Faramsu, our sister village, who blew everyone away.
Jowed was one of our judges but she got a turn reading as well.
A bit of cuteness, followed by seeing little William here's dad, Temarr, read.
Rruta came in 1st.
Prizes - all winners got some rice and a few of our publications.
Rruta got 1st prize.
Malibu came in 2nd.
Jenita was 3rd.
Our translators George and Yanik didn't read in the competition since they get so much practice, but we hope to have another competition that is leveled so they'll be placed in advanced and have a go there. George was a judge and Yanik was the fantastic emcee. I judged and Houghton tallied points for us. We learned from my mistakes last time, and hopefully we just keep getting better at this! Please pray for everyone to be motivated to keep practicing reading, and to dig into God's Word in their own language.
