Friday Women's Bible Study


Every Friday afternoon at 4 pm we have a ladies Bible study with the student wives. We have been going through the book of John slowly and carefully.
 


Many of them bring their Bibles in their heart language but some are also learning to read the Bible in English.
 



 
This week Joyce led the study from chapter 8, the story of Jesus forgiving the adulterous woman.
 


Our homework from last week's study was to memorize John 7:38 and put it to music. Claire and I sang it in English to the tune of Seek Ye First, 2 ladies sang it in Uduk, 2 ladies sung it in Arabic, and 2 ladies sang it in Dinka. Mary and Rhoda - in the picture above - sang it in Dinka. It was wonderful hearing God's Word being sung in four different languages!
