Internet, Pen Pal Letters, Music, and more...

I cannot believe that I am sitting in the dorm writing this blog! Sarah and John have been working with the internet connection in the dorm and it is working faster than we ever expected it to. This opens up so many possibilities... communication with our folks on the ground here, kids using technology while living in the dorm...it is huge! On Sunday we traveled to some of the homes of the kids to deliver the pen pal letters and give them the clothes that I have collected for them. I helped them read the letters and explain the questions that their pen pals asked. It was a very special moment with each kid. Today we are working on the song about self reliance with the group of musicians, and then teaching beading to a group of women. Later today we will go to Township to visit the 5 kids that are boarding students there. The teenagers are fading in energy a bit today but those of us that are tough are crusin along!
