Our Language Class

From left to right: Fatima (teacher), Mark, Hannah, Rui (teacher), Fiona (other student) and Monica (teacher)

This is at International House, our language school- we have been blessed with 3 wonderful teachers and another student in our class. For the past couple of months we have had this set up and Mark and I have learned so much! Things are going to change a little for us after January as far as language school goes. We are a little sad about the change but thankful for the time we had at IH.
Pray for us as we figure out all the details of changing schools. Right now it looks like Mark will be taking class at the University of Lisbon. We still haven't found a place for me to study (we need at place that isn't too expensive, meets the requirements, has classes at the right time and is easy to get to) so we are busy trying to figure that out.
Continue to pray for our language learning too. We are enjoying the process but really wish we could speed things up:) Really when we evaluate how much we have learned we are doing great. We are starting to be able to have longer conversations, feel more comfortable practising what we are learning and are also able to understand a lot of what is being said to us and around us. But we have a long way to go and we are committed to learning this beautiful language!
