A glimpse of KJ at work

I don't just climb mountains and go on nice trips, once in a while I actually do some work! Recently we have held a couple of Scripture Use seminars introducing ourselves and our work to the Language Committees of two different language areas. The first seminar was also attended by the local Officer of Culture, so here my colleague listens intently (trying to understand his Swahili) as he encourages the seminar participants to value their culture and language.

After this seminar the rain tipped it down, turning the footpath to our friend's house (where we went to enjoy some delicious Tanzanian food) into a stream.

The second seminar was held in a huge church, we looked a bit lost clustered at the front, but despite the echoes, the seminar went well and the participation was good.
