My posts didn’t get here in quite the right order… might have to find Nov 4 and 5 1st if that matters to you.
I was finishing up some things at the house so was a few minutes behind everybody getting to Sunday School here in Choygoria. Just as I was getting there, Lonnie was coming out. He says, “I don’t have enough pictures copied. There’s 60 children already. So I went back home and copied off more.
At Chakrakhali S.S. they told us that one of our regular attendees, Dudjoy, is turning 18 this week and we should give him an adult birthday party😉
So after S.S. I asked him if he had any plans for his birthday? And no he didn’t. He comes from quite a poor home, dirt floors with very close neighbors, like no yard…. Just one house right after another right along the main road going thru Chakrakhali…
So after discussing it with Lonnie a bit, we hatched a plan.. and told him we’d take him to an eating place of his choice with 10 people of his choice.. It would have to be after his actual birthday because we had guests coming tomorrow and the next evening was a big Hindu puja/celebration.. so we scheduled for 7:00 Mon eve Kacchi Dine at Zero point.
4:00 service Shotti well again and back in church with Shanto and Espondant.. as well as Kobid and Liton. An older neighbor lady that we see out walking lots attended also. Her mind is starting to fail her already..
After church, Shotti wanted to go right home and get supper started, her parents are still not feeling well. This virus hit their whole crew pretty hard.
We needed lettuce in particular for tomorrow’s lunch and fruit, veggies , and other essentials for the next week since we would not be doing our weekly shopping like normal in Sat. So we went in to Khulna City stopping for fuska and chotputi on the way home. It was impressive to see traffic and the vendors that line the edges of the streets back to normal so soon after the Probe Minister’s visit… all the trees were still there that had been planted survival tho.. Will be interesting to see how long they are there… till they want to use that space for something else or the cows eat them..
