A little update

Last weekend we travelled up to Dhaka to meet and farewell people from the Tranzsend team here in Bangladesh. We did a day trip which consisted of a 3+ hr trip on the launch, we then picked up a midi keyboard so that Caleb can continue to record music, had lunch with about 20 people whom we met mostly for the first time and then a 3+hr trip back home on the launch. I really enjoyed the day.

The launch trip back was quite an event. We had a large crowd of curious onlookers in a semicircle around us and peering through curtains.  One young muslim  man spoke very good English and came and sat with us. It turns out he is studying English literature and has a passion to see a change in the education sector in Bangladesh. DC and he spoke for a long time and exchanged numbers. His family is from a village not too far from Chandpur and he studies in Dhaka. They exchanged phone numbers and email and have since made contact. On Thursday DC had an email saying he would be passing through Chandpur and could he come visit. He ended up having lunch with us and playing badminton with the kids. He's such a nice guy and we pray he might be someone who will work alongside us.
