2015 – Yeah, We’re still in Kasulu..
The new color laser printer – all set up.
Kasulu – Life continues in Kusulu with mornings and afternoons spent at the Bible College and evenings spent as guests of various College and Diocesan staff members. Today’s lunch was a bit of a change up as the Bishop returned today from his short trip to the Gloucester Diocese in Great Britain and the staff had a “welcome home” lunch for him, which we attended.
Bill spent a lot of time working on one of the small workstations, which he cannot get to boot. He has tried all sorts of workarounds to fix the operating system and has one last trick up his sleeve that he will try tomorrow before perhaps giving the entire thing up as due to a bad disk drive.
The rest of the work today involved completing setting up the new ip addresses on all of the workstations and taking away their admin rights, installing one good anti-virus software program and removing the FOUR others that Bill found on various workstations and setting up the color laser printer that we brought. (Note: it is not a case or “the more the merrier” in the case of having anti-virus software packages installed on a computer. They just fight with one another and bollox things up.)
Bill and Reginald play with the new projector.
In other news, the students started building the end walls (between the corners they built yesterday) of the new staff offices and Bill and I started our Swahili lessons. I spent the afternoon transcribing and trying to make sense of my notes, while Bill did a dry-run of playing a DVD movie over the projector.
It looks as if movie night will be Friday night now. We will be traveling to Kigoma on Saturday with the Bishop for confirmations in Kigoma and Ujiji and spending the night there.
Further work on the new staff offices.
I will say that the weather here is lovely, although much drier than folks would like (end of the dry season). Although the the days get hot and the sun is not something you want to stand out in for long, the nights are cooler and absolutely perfect sleeping weather!
Again, thank you so much for your continued prayers. God is really blessing us here.
