One of our Central parishioners (Sami Oeser) is serving in the Peace Corps in Botswana in HIV/AIDS education.
Just received an email from her discussing scarcity of water in Botswana. In the native language Setswana, the word "pula" means "currency" and "rain." It is also a general term for blessings.
This is interesting to me...money and rain are the same word. It's been crazy-raining here in AK the last few days and cramping my hiking style. What if I saw these raindrops as precious as money?

I suppose it's all a matter of perspective, but since MT is crazy-dry right now, I would say those raindrops ARE as precious as money. If you're having too much, though, maybe you could bring some with you next week when you visit!
