It was definitely an exciting week for us to be able to officially open the center, Reset. The beginner ESL class began on Wednesday bringing many residents from Caselle and surrounding cities. We had 18 people preregister but had 22 show up. The place was packed out and we had exactly the right amount of chairs to accommodate them. Jonathan was very encouraged to see the high level of enthusiasm and participation in a group of strangers that size. The evening could not have gone better in Jonathan's opinion. Everyone signed up to return next week, but in two different class sections at 7:30 and 9:00p.m. Since then he has allowed 2 more people in to the class bringing it up to 24 beginners!
Friday night was the intermediate class with 13 students in attendance. Again, things went really well and Catherine was also pleased with her first lessons. Thank you for sharing in our excitement and your continued prayers for this ministry to the community. Now that ESL has launched we can now more fully concentrate on working through the next steps for church services and other outreach projects. We will not be lacking for things to work on this fall that is for sure!
