Great start to the day! The roads from Tegucigalpa were good! Since the rainy season just started, the road up to the school from the highway is still washed out and our drivers are incredible in their ability to maneuver the rocks and ravines. We started off again with some programming from the kids. Those […]

As per usual, the church service in Malawi did not disappoint, but instead it continues to bring true joy to all those in attendance.
