Ben...

 

He's gonna LOVE having a post all about him... 😉😃
Some of you on FB may have heard about the corn hole sets that Ben was making and selling. Several people here in the Philippines bought them for personal use, and some in the States sponsored a set for a local ministry (thank you!). It was fun to get to deliver the sets to local orphanages, rescue homes, and recovery centers. Ben was able to explain the game and even play a little with the kids, and we've received several reports of how the sets are being enjoyed by the kids since then.
Recently, during a hard rain, a tree fell on our friends' house. It was Saturday, and he was sleeping in, but he wasn't too frustrated to be woken up to go help with it. He spent all morning helping them to chop it up with machetes.
School has officially started for Faith Academy, but it looks a little different this year...all online, at least through 1st semester. So proud of how Ben is handling all this but appreciate prayers that we can be back in the classroom next semester!
Ben is doing 6 classes through Faith and 2 as independent study (with me), so it's definitely a full load. His two independent study classes are US History and Tagalog. We are having fun with the Tagalog one as he is learning effective language-learning principles in the process.
Thanks for praying for Ben!
