We arrived yesterday, after a grueling 24+ hours of travel and little to no sleep. We took a bus back to the town we would stay in (fun fact: they drive on the opposite side of the road like England!) and showered, then had an AMAZING dinner at our organization\u2019s Cafe. After a good meal and full night of sleep, we woke up the next morning and drove to the organization\u2019s school. We were welcomed with singing and dancing and the girls waving palm leaves in the air; it was a grand entrance, for sure. Then the girls put on an awesome choir performance for us, and we introduced ourselves with some games and Swahili lessons. We then ate a delicious lunch made by the staff, and then went to a Christian Childrens\u2019 Crusade that happened to be taking place that day in the town. There were over 5,000 children in attendance from all over the town and surrounding areas. We sang and danced and talked with the children, a lot of whom spoke a few words of English. After a few hours with them, we headed back to have tacos for dinner that were absolutely incredible, and ended our day at the Cafe. The whole trip so far has been an incredibly moving and humbling experience, and we are beyond honored to be here and be a part of something so beautiful and powerful in these girls\u2019 lives. Thank you so much for continued prayer and support, we would not be here without you! You are a blessing!
