Today was the first day that we got
to go to The Haven and meet all the kids. When I say that they are the most
precious children I have ever seen that is an understatement. Their smiles are
beyond beautiful and they are so happy.
After lunch instead of driving we
walked to The Havens for the first time; that walk will take some getting used
to but it’s beautiful. Tonight we went to Eric’s House (the house at Namwianga
for the older boys) for a bonfire. The boys and all of the people that live at
the mission sang beautiful worship songs. Later we had s’mores and bottled
coke! We were a little bit too excited for that little treat.
Tomorrow we are going into town to
shop at the market, exchange our money, and go grocery shopping. Hopefully next
week I will have the opportunity to go out of the mission and into the villages
or the hospitals. I also hope to have the chance to meet people who work at the
mission ad students from the college. The journey is just beginning!
