Kay Timoun-some kids thrive, others struggle.


August 11, 2012

Gastina is so proud that she was asked to read at church tomorrow.  She practiced and then read for me beautifully.  Some of the kids here at Kay Timoun are making great advances.  Six children are training to be acolytes.  Others are struggling. Estemi, in particular, is having a hard time with the structure and discipline of Kay Timoun.  He has always been “on his own”, even though he has a very loving father.  So, it is difficult for him to understand that he must give time each day to study.  He would much rather just hang out with the boys his age.  As a whole, the girls are much easier than the boys. 

It has been a rough week all around here at Kay Timoun.  Hope next week is easier!

Wonald woke everyone up at 6:00AM on Friday for Eucharist Service at 6:30, new for Ste. Marie Madeleine, introduced by Pere Phanord.   All of Kay Timoun attended mass, although some of us showed up a little late.  The service was well attended; I counted 60 people.

  1. Tell Estemi that I'll keep him in my prayers. I also struggle with studying enough and wanting to just hang out. Blessings to you all!
