This weekend, we had a mini-retreat with our future staffers at New Day. They are:
Mulenga: our absolute closest friend in Zambia who oversees everything that is being done on the land
Hildah: very close friend who will be teaching (currently teaches preschool in a town 2 hours away), has a 4 year old daughter who will be coming as well
Abby: very close friend who will be teaching (currently teaches preschool in the capitol city)
Elizabeth: a new friend who will be working with Zambian social welfare officers and heading up the community development projects for New Day, has a 6 year old daughter who will be coming as well
We had a great time eating, talking, putting puzzles together, gossiping about boys, talking about the future of New Day, and just preparing them for their move to the land in December of this year! Enjoy the pics!
The ring beam on the first orphan house is finally poured--roofing to begin soon!
Our house (you can barely see the tin roof going up) and our very nice grass fence!
My kitchen (notice all the electrical is done and works perfectly hooked up to the generator!)
The big kitchen/dining/laundry/classroom area ready for the slab to be poured
T-r-o-u-b-l-e :) Blu and Mulenga
Abby eating steak at our house and trying her hardest to master the art of using a fork and a knife (Zambians eat only with their hands)
