We are so amazed and overwhelmed with our first day. After lunch we went visiting in the village. The photos are from that visit. Men hold hands with other men. You see Otis with one of the pastors. We have given a few soccer balls so far. We are doing it a little at a time. The most humbling thing was to visit the three wells that service 60,000 people. One is quite muddy and we are hoping to come up with a solution that can make the well hole cleaner, possibly by digging and placing a new pipe. Most people get all their water from these wells. The pastor is so precious. One of my greatest joys today, aside from seeing Andrew and Fabian was to give hymnals to the worship leaders. They had requested some last year. I was able to teach a few new hymns as we sang together on our walking your. I realized that they could not read music and so I sat down with them and was able to start from the beginning with teaching notes, rhythm and time and key signatures. What a privilege to be able to take what has been taught me by others and pass it along. They are very intelligent and talented and just have not had the opportunity. It has been amazing!!!! I wish I had time to tell more!!
