The bonus was meeting up with American missionary couple, Claire and Mike Fidele who were visiting Amanda and Andre from Tanzania.
Claire, Amanda, Jo and Grant

Amanda and I discovered Buhangija (place of safety for children with albinism) and ultimately our lives and work here crossed with Claire's.

We are on our way to Marquard this morning. We'll see our dear grandchildren, Joel, Abby and Liam as we collect Grant's tools and a few items to bring back to the Berg. We'll also be spending time with Grant's mom in the retirement village while we overnight with Rina.
HAPPY MONDAY TO YOU ALL!
I remember Amanda from your days in Tanzania and all the good work you and she did with the children. God bless the couple who are working in Tanzania to improve so many lives there. xx

ReplyDeleteHave a safe trip. I know it was nice meeting up with these wonderful people. I remember your post in the past about these organs that are albinos. God bless all that work with them and God bless you for helping to train the women that take care of them
