Today we made great progress in the girls dormitory! The dorm is used for vulnerable girls attending school to have a safe place to sleep and study. They travel great distances to get to school and most places that are for rent have the option of using their body as payment. So the parish created this safe house to prevent any of this corruption from occurring. We cleaned, scrubbed, dusted, and painted the celling and walls. We had amazing helpers from the village pitching in and giving a helping hand anywhere they could. We also had some wonderful entertainment from the kids of the village as well. Ann, Kendal, Lyssa, Shomari, Alexis Notter, and Sarah had some of the kids draw pictures of whatever their heart desired. They loved being able to draw and make us "Macuwa" smile. Throughout the day we tied in Father Bob's homily of "God did it" and expressed that our faith and determination come from our Lord! Thank you for continuing to follow! Tomorrow some of us will venture across the river to spread the word of God!
Hi sista Ann, I read above details of the mission. Seems like it is going well with the mission, culture and having fun with the children and others. Nothing has changed or new to report from home. Greg and Bob continue to take care of Macey lol. See you soon. Love Debbie
