MWINIKA PROVERB #11

MWINIKA PROVERB #11

March 12, 2011

“Oshirikha onnikhwaranya emwidhi.” (To be friends is better than to be family.) In a society that places so much emphasis on family ties this is a profound statement.

PROGRESS ON SHELTER

RAIN DELAY

March 12, 2011

It finally happened. We were rained out! Monday it started raining overnight and never really stopped. A few brave souls showed up that day at the teaching site.

SNAKE MAYHEM

SNAKE MAYHEM

March 2, 2011

On Tuesday’s lesson we were talking about the creation of animals. One of the points we were stressing was that man doesn’t possess the ability to give life to anything. Even if we carve an animal from wood or paint a realistic picture or take a picture we can’t infuse life into that carving or […]
