AFRICA TRIP, Day 17

Monday, August 25, 2008

At the end of a very full day, I am filled with gratitude. How incredible it is to be here and be having an almost surreal experience. Still, these Massai people are very real and God loves each of them deeply! The dedication of the clinic and school today was really special. God was truly glorified in everything we did today. The Massai sang and danced for hours. The government officials of Tanzania came out and spoke, proclaiming, “Bwena Asi Fewai!” (“Praise the Lord!”) I thought it was cool that the whole ceremony was done in Swahili and Ma, and it truly was like a worship service! So many solid partnerships have been established here…between us and the Massai, the Massai and the government and the government and us. What a day!
