Seeds planted!

Hey all! Mr. Cragoe and I just got out of our highschool class. Today was really exciting, for several reasons! The first is, the students were much more open and talkative today. We didn't have to call on them as much; they volunteered answers. We had a bit of extra time at the end, so we played "Hangman". Munkuu, one of the more fluent students, got up and put "Vendetta" as his word. We were quite impressed. =) Also, Mr. Cragoe had an exciting experience today with one of the students. Our main mission here, obviously, is to reach the Mongolians for Christ. Teaching English is just a means to the end. Also, we're trying to build the credibility of the "In-Motion" school that we're at (with the Bunnell's and Kenworthy's), so that they can form relationships with these people. Well, today was a little glimpse that God is really working through the efforts.
I'll let Mr. Cragoe tell you about it.
Go with God,

Today during a break in class, Nomuun (as in, what happens on a cloudy night: There's...) flagged me down and asked if I had a religion. I said, "Yes" and she asked which one. I told her I was a Christian and that Christianity is more than a set of rules to keep, but that it is a relationship with God, just like a wife or husband. She said, "I like Christian." We talked some more and I am looking forward to seeing her interest develop. Please pray that the Seed is not snatched away from her, but that it would develop into abundant fruit. We have related to our class the past couple of days that some of these stories and even the idioms (like the Golden Rule) are from the Bible. Please pray that this would spark their interest and that they would want to know more and we would have open doors to share the Gospel.
