Today was another fantastic day at St Judes.
After breakfast this morning we broke up into three groups. Each group was given an interpreter and jumped into a St Judes bus to go for a home visit.
Jude, Linda, Pete and Ruth went to visit one family, Craig, Ali, Ash and Dave went to visit another and Brad, Sharkie and I headed off to meet Raja and his family. Raja is one of the kids who is in the boarding room that I sponsor.
The family were so excited to see us and thanked us so many times for sponsoring Raja. They said the opportunity to go to St Judes will change the whole family's future. There was Raja, his 2 sisters and 2 brothers, his mum, dad and grandmother living in a two bedroom mud hut. They have absolutely nothing and are the happiest people.
After everyone got back from home visits we all went and had lunch with the secondary school kids. They were all very keen to ask us questions. Following our lunch of beans and rice we then went and sat in on a computer class. I sat with two lovely girls called Jacklyn and Queen. We had our Camp Quality shirts on and they were keen to know all about it. We then looked Camp Quality up on the net to show them where I worked.
After this we lazed around for a while and then got back in the bus to go to the boarding school to check that out and have dinner with them. Jacklyn from the computer class was there and asked if I could sit with her. She and her friends were so sweet and we had a great laugh. They said when we left their computer room they were showing everyone the Qamp Quality website - how cool is that! Camp Quality has reached the kids of Africa.
Tomorrow we leave for our first day of our safari. We are all excited about seeing the animals. We will still have one more day at St. Judes after the safari and before we leave for home.
Brad, Sharkie, Mary and I are sharing a small room together which is proving to be very interesting!!
Hugs,
Donna
