Such heart...

Hello everyone!

So today I read an article that Le Beni sent to me... And wow - it is so powerful! It's about the CEO of a hospital, who is approaching the declining economy in a different, and surprising way. He employs over 8,000 people - and recognizing that they would have to cut the jobs of many of the lower-income employees... He asked the entire staff what could be done to save jobs. And the people responded. Here is the article.

I found it to be a very uplifting and incredible article. I really hope you will enjoy it.

This week we wrapped up the exams... It's been a long two weeks for everyone, especially the students. Most had six or seven exams, some had as many as ten! So they are tired and ready for a small break, before resuming classes on Monday!

Things here in Beni are going well... Currently it just started pouring rain, there is lightning and booming thunder... I hope my house isn't flooding!!! The grounds outside of UCBC certainly are...

But besides the weather, the area remains calm, peaceful and hopeful. Hope is powerful, and it is evident that we all cling to it here.

Have a great weekend!

love,
Bethany
