Had a very busy day yesterday. Started off with a meeting with an artist who�s designing some Christmas Bulletins. We ended up going to his office for the meeting to make it easier for him. Even though the artist had good taste and was accommodating, we ended up designing and proofreading everything ourselves.The building where the artist�s office was, is the reason I�m logging this. It was dark, there was no signage anywhere and everyone was running around like crazy. By the time we found the office, we found the whole thing crazy.

Next was a meeting to help out someone from Yeghegnadzor, market some candles in Armenia. Initially our guy needs to provide samples and if successful will be marketed within Armenia.

Then I taught English in the afternoon to the kids at Sourp Katoghige Church where we read some extracts from the Bible in English. Those kids are really cute and smart. In the evening I went to my law lecture where the poor families get together and learn some of the laws and their rights in Armenia from a professional lawyer.

Tonight is the opening of the Centre for �Duty to Live� on Tumanian where I�ll be continuing my English lessons to the struggling families. This Centre will be utilized for the �boys and Girls Club� in future.

Since my schedule is so hectic and I�m only teaching the intermediate group (10 students) twice a week in the evenings, I�m also getting assistance from the other Volunteers to teach the beginners classes. So each Volunteer will teach a group of 10 each on different nights. That�s the beauty of working as a group under the Volunteer Program where assistance is always at hand. Please visit the site www.armenianvolunteer.org for more information.
