my friend bethany just returned from Africa last week. yesterday she made me some tea that she had brought back and i heard some of her stories.
stories of airports and delayed flights
of eating the most common dish-dough made of flour and water
of beautiful people
amazing stories of God's grace
holding orphans
praying together in spite of culture, ethnicity, language
serving
crafts and VBS
showing children what stickers are for the first time
meeting her sponsored child

hearing more about the vision called mavuno village.

may we never be calloused.
