Things are going well. After some encouragement and working
in small groups the students seem to be in much better spirits. Psychological
counseling tips were helpful for the students and will be as they go back to
their villages after the program.
The teaching today started on the genitals and basic sex ed.
This is always a subject of much interest, and this year is no different.
We always hear interesting things from the students. For
instance, this year one of the students told us that there was a belief in some
of the hill tribes that if someone had twins that they were evil so they would
kill them. Nurse Betty eloquently explained that no baby is born evil. To back
this claim up from a biblical perspective she pointed out that the devil cannot
create human life and therefore cannot cause an infant to be evil. Only God can
create life and He does not create evil things. Since the students are all
Christians this seemed to make since on spiritual level. Teaching the medical
side of how twins come about will help demystify the rare occurrence and help
explain away any dangerous superstitions about twins.
