My Classmates (Part 1)

One of my joys of these first few weeks of classes is getting to know my classmates.

Where are they from?
What are their backgrounds?
How many in their family?
Why are they studying Spanish?
How did the Lord lead them to RGBI?
Where are they going from here?

So in the next two posts, I would like to introduce my classmates to you. Since one of this blog's purposes is to be a springboard for missions discussion in the home, I have provided links for you to learn more about my classmate's ministries.

Please remember them in prayer as well. We are all in this language learning crucible together.
