Wow. There is so much to say and not nearly enough time to write a proper post. I will do my best to update you in the few minutes I have left.
My volunteers-Tatiana, Tracy, Laura, Rachel and Eva-arrived last weekend. With only a day of R&R, we jumped into camp with the boys in our program on Monday morning. Each day we spend time teaching photography, music, basic art lessons and frisbee and loving on the boys as much as we can. It is so good to see them well fed, well rested and happy. They are opening up to us more every day and I can see how much our program is benefitting them. What a blessing it is to see them grow.
More than that, it is a privilege to watch the ways in which the American volunteers love on the kids with hugs, tender words and prayers of blessing. The biggest argument between the volunteers so far has been: how can we best demonstrate our love to the boys.
I wish I had time for more but will try to write a longer post next week!
with love,
Amanda

ReplyDeleteHey, Kwags!
ReplyDeleteWe are home and don't know quite how to adjust without all the kwagala we received from the boys. Thank you for allowing us to be blessed so much.
