(H)aleluia!

Okay....! That was quick! I was about to share a prayer request / piece of news. I was about to talk about the adult class I teach at the Science and Technology Library here in Gwacheon. It is a great class, as far as I know, but there had been one problem up until now (and I mean right now): I had no books! They had been doing American Headway 2, and when I came in to teach the class (after the previous teacher quit), I had no books! So a student graciously lent me hers. This was
fine for one class, and even for two. But yesterday, it was clear that I had better make sure I get my own book (if not books and a tape). The problem was (and still is to a degree), the previous teacher appartently did not even leave the books she had been using at the school. So, what was a new teacher to do?

I had asked Diane, my supervisor, about it, and she had said she would try and look into ordering more books for me, but the situation got neglected and - again - yesterday, in my third class at the library, it was obvious that I needed to get at least a student book for the next class. Well, I was all ready to start typing this, when, out of the corner of my eye, next to the computer, on one of the other teachers' desks, I saw a book - an American Headway 2 student book! Talk about "Before they call I will answer, and while they are yet speaking I will
hear" (See Isaiah 65:24)! Now, I still need either a teacher's manual, or a cassette tape (and both would be really nice) - but at least there is an American Headway 2 Student Book around here! Alleluia!

Daniel

P.S. I just talked to Diane, my supervisor, and she said she had ordered a book and a tape already - so it should be arriving today. So it sounds like I will have all I need for the class tomorrow.
