MOVING ELEPHANTS!!




MOVING ELEPHANTS!!

 
   While  these elephants are an unwelcome sight , they remain  impressive  all the same. 
 
The image is blurred, as this  rogue   had just appeared as we were driving back to the Village, and we  hesitated momentarily to click off a few images. 
Very intimidating and unpredictable, as these are neither wild nor tame,  simply tolerate  the Villagers from afar.  People have been killed by these huge animals which can easily destroy a car.

These elephants are an unwelcome sight in Karen country.   








The   KAREN, A Religious Christian Community,Distinctive's    intact  in Community Life, Traditions Of Faith, Native Houses of Split Bamboo, Clothing And Diet. Akin To the Amish / Mennonites 




I am teaching a youth study here  which developed into a lively discussion in  simple English and then we played  games. 














Jim has taught in this particular Village/Bible School for  15 years and he is deeply respected. His Seminars have been assimilated well into the community of believers and  we. Return yearly for continued training of which these Christians are most thankful. 
I taught a unique and specialised form of communication in the Marriage Seminar, and  from that class , the lessons were duplicated twice. 

Below he is sharing a message with the graduates  here in a Refugee Camp. We have been here now several times . 





This is a very special occasion as you can imagine as these young people have  studied hard and shown themselves  earnest.

This spider was crawling on our wall last  night next to our bed.  
It  can spring off the  wall,  and jump far, thus  becoming  the quintessential   fear for the . 
Aracnophobics. 
As to size, it  measures  the span of my palm. 
 Jim and i, dared each other  laughing as we crept near to  photograph it for this  image.
  For sure, another unsavoury presence among this village.
