out. Next time I looked at the shed it had a name plate hanging above the entrance:

Filus had remembered our stay in the SoE guest house of the same name, and as it means "Guest House of Happiness", I hoped it would bring happiness to our student guests. They even connected it to the electricity circuit. As each guest house should have a register for the guests, I bought a book and Filus or Zarus saw to it that our guests would enter their names and date in it.

After my first year as a missionary, I felt quite settled. The work gave me great satisfaction, and my relationship with the students deepened. I introduced into their curriculum something they had not done before, which was a range of exciting tours, which I hoped would open their eyes to practical issues which they were likely to encounter in their first appointment as ministers. Hopefully, this would better prepare them in dealing with such issues.
