the home stretch

Sigh. We're on the home stretch. It's been an incredible two weeks, and today set another standard of an amazing day in Africa. In the morning we got to meet the cheif of Mwandi at his palace. I did not expect this to be such an excellent visit...i'm not really into the whole bowing for random people...that kind of thing. but that's just tradition, and he's nothing like that. he was incredibly wise and well spoken and...well it's hard to describe but it was amazing. i finally had a good exprience at the OVC this morning and it really was special. those kids are...again hard to describe over a silly blog, but mary got some awesome pictures that i'll have to steal off of her. the last Jesus quest was great. I got some notes and addresses from some of the kids and i'm excited to stay in touch. computer training was a bit disappionting. Ben is actually still there and it's 8:40. yikes. we had less people show up, and i'm worried that these will soon be as neglected as the other computers collecting dust in that room. i really think the situation needs prayers because so much work and money have been spent and so much opportunity is available. anyways. there's hope, but i'm nervous. i'm too tired to go into much depth. but after tonight, we ultimately begin our journey home...and i can't wait to see you all.
