So...we had our expetriate country retreat a week ago. It was very nice to be out of very plain areas to at least sort of mountain country side. Its a different kind of of setting apart from the very plain but green bangladesh that I am used to now. The people living there are totally different and of course there is rainforest, which we went for a walk. Seeing monkeys and drinking seven layers of different coloured tea twices, is something to remember. Then having our group devotional/sharing time together was very helpful. I should say that most of my lives living is on denial, but this doesnt make me a bad person.. rather finding the common ground to share is very much needed. I should say that when sharing with one another on common ground really helps thus relieving our exhausted mind partially or completely. While I am still in the Grace period, I have to learned how to serve whole heartly. This was the word of the Lord came to me during the retreat.
So, the retreat was fun, walking through the woods and smelling the dead leaves was the highlight for me. Then of course sharing, playing games, just hanging out with the group and drinking seven layers of colored tea.

Rabbits kidding
The Rabbits
Its been five months and three weeks when the rabbits have started kidding. My specific job title was/is livestock researcher, and was told to work with rabbits and pigs since they are the major issue with the tribal areas which MCC is mostly working with. But has decided that rabbit could be introduced to the muslim community and I have been working with the rabbits to solve or find the cause of not being pregnant or not kidding. I have bought twenty eight rabbits twenty are female and eight are male. Since I bought them at the early age, some of them were sexed wrong. This is because, a month ago, I found out that one of the males is female which reduce the number of males down to seven. As some you remember that I have mentioned about the housing designed that I was working on. Well the results collected, I am still working on it but I am writing this to share the good news that one of my housing design is great or highly significant. This is because most of the females that gave birth are from one of the housing design. I have one mother with four kits that I am right now taking care of these will be used for breeding purpose. As I was coming to closure of this research, I have selected farmers to take the rabbits that are not going to be used for breeding. I am so happy that most of the rabbits have been taken by the settled families and starting to build the recommend housing to raise the rabbits . So far thing are getting better.. and hope that the muslim community with start to eat the rabbit meat. Or and these rabbits that are given, are to the muslim community.
Thanks for reading and God's blessings everyone.
