He took us to the government hospital where we met the hospital administrator who was a friend of Herbert’s. He showed us the place and at the end, offered for me to intern with him as an administrator and for George to work in the lab for a week. Both would be volunteer positions, but we would love to do it.
Next to the hospital is a malaria research facility partly funded by the Bill Gates foundation. It’s really nice. They are researching a vaccination for malaria. Their results look promising so far. Although we didn’t have an appointment, we were able to meet with one of the research doctors in charge and learn more about their projects.
Lastly we walked around the market for a bit before heading home. We got home kind of late (around 4) and Herbert was accused of starving us! Our lunch was waiting for us… chicken and chips (fries)… so good.
The rest of the day was relaxing. Before bedtime each night, the family gets together for worship, prayer and reading of the Bible. No matter how late it gets, they always do that. It was a blessing to be a part of that each evening. I want to start that tradition in my home too.
What a great tradition!
