And now for another story on what keeps Ron busily happy in his ministry at Rain Forest International School (RFIS) as the Director of Technical Services. Fifth story: teaching Small Engines Class.

This semester Ron’s been teaching a small engine course. His students got to take apart a small engine, take it apart and start it. They worked on a motorcycle’s carborator.. then they got to ride the motorcycle. Ron gave the students some small engines that were not working, and gave them the challenge to figure out what’s wrong with it.
Driving Practise.
The last week of class, Ron gave his students a small course in driving. Then he let them drive our van around the campus during class time. Parallel parking became a lesson in getting unstuck from the mud – a valuable lesson for those living in rural Africa.


That’d keep me busy. And it’s worse than snow. At least snow usually has a pavement under it so things really can’t get too far.
