Wrapping things up


Two Crescent Hill projects related to our Guatemala partnership - the joint English as a foreign langage teaching minisstry with James Lees and Covenant Community Presbyterian churches and the Spanish class - wound up their winter terms in the past couple of weeks. A week ago Wednesday the EFL ministry had a regular supper and class, with numbers somewhat down. The week before Crescent Hill folks had prepared dinner and cleaned up, on both Monday and Wednesday. The EFL ministry will start a somewhat short spring term, starting two Mondays after Easter (April 12) and running until something like Memorial day weekend. Ada's Spanish class (pictured above and below) was supposed to wrap up earlier in the month, but had two snow days in Tuesday. The class started with about 20 students. Attendance dipped towards the end, but the class plowed several chapters into the book and learned numbers, telling time, weather, and body parts - even standing up and singing "Heads, shoulders, knees, and toes" in Spanish. The class will gather after church for lunch at the Mexico Viejo restaurant across from Kroger on Brownsboro Road and then start up a late spring term on the Tuesday after Derby, May 4 - again, 6:30-8 in the Crescent Hill Education Building.
