We have a social secretary. Husband and wife team. Without them we would simply be bricked in here at Shiloh. Never go outside the gate. But they are there and from time to time they contact us with our next social outing. We're in charge of arranging transportation. They do all the rest.
Last night we went out together. It was a dinner and drama event. Held at Rain Forest International School. Their drama department put on Shakespear's A Mid Summers Night Dream. It was well executed. The costumes had a decided Cameroon flavor. They had constructed some pretty realistic trees as part of their set.
The 10th grade put on the dinner. Admittedly the food was not up to Shiloh standards. Guess we're spoiled. The veggies were more raw than cooked. And the pasta should have boiled another fifteen minutes. Pretty chewy. The chicken was a tough old one. But the frosting on the cake was that we had to pay extra for dessert and it was served during intermission! Kind of cheeky if you ask me! (But whose asking?) Guess they have to raise funds somehow. All their fund raising money goes towards their senior trip, so this is serious business.
Shiloh was full last night. And every single one of our guests, minus one, were at RFIS with us. Interesting.
Tomorrow night we're going out again. Getting to be downright habit. There is going to be a worship event walking distance from our house. So we're taking flashlights and walking out. A time of prayer, Bible reading, and singing. It will be good for us to mingle with other missionaries.
