Chicken and rice at Episcopal Church guest house

We are staying at the Guest House at the Episcopal Church in S Sudan. We had worked out a price of $50 per room (3 rooms) and includes supper and breakfast. When we arrived, apparently Jesus needed a few more bucks so the price skyrocketed to $275! I had to persuade the money changers and worked a deal for $200. It's tough to experience a constant fleecing, especially when you don't expect it. It's ok though. We are here to be loving and to drill a well. These people have so little and Americans are an opportunity to have some desperately needed money.
