We've had a pretty busy few months in Choma (and the surrounding areas!). We have seen more of Zambia than we ever thought possible. Here are a few highlights from the past couple of teams that we haven't yet had time to mention:
 |
| Kazoo choir in Maambo |
Daybreak Team (from Michigan) - This was a fun group! Everywhere they went they emanated joy and laughter. We spent a ton of time with their partner village - Maambo. You can tell they loved the people there and were fully invested in the projects that had been started (a piggery, hammermill and teachers houses). Plus, they brought us things from home...how can we not love them!

| IWU on a home visit in Sinafala |
IWU Public Health Team - a team of 8 girls, led by their male professor (a brave man, he was!). They were some of the most kind and loving girls we have met. Many nights were spent in our living room with this group, hearing about their days and drinking hot chocolate and eating Jon's delicious muffins. We had many interesting experiences with this group and we will miss them dearly because of those!

| Digging for the foundation |
Highpoint First Wesleyan (from North Carolina)- they were our go-getters! This group not only wanted to get the job done (as they started 2 teacher houses in Katundulu and did teacher mentoring), but the village they were in will be greater because of the relationships they developed. We have never seen 2 American men get a group of 16 construction workers to laugh that much! And, they brought us stuff from home :)
Now, it is time to rest. Our hearts our full - it's time to try to sort them out and make room for even more that is to come.
