The drum set was once Lance Rundus's - he got this when he was about 13. I guess the youth leader asked to use it for a youth event some time ago. The next Sunday after the event the Pastor of the church made a special announcement of appreciation for the gift that Lance had given to the church. The youth leader tried telling the Pastor that they were just on loan but the damage was already done and it is now a permanent part of the church. Sometimes you just have to go with the flow.
The church sits at the highest point of Ndu and it is a beautiful view. One thing about being at such a high altitude, you feel winded when you walk most anywhere. I thought it was just because I'm getting old and out of shape but one of the kids said they feel winded too.
Here is our family with some friends:
That's some pretty vivid fabric! I love how uninhibited our African friends are with color and pattern--mixing and (not so much) matching with impunity! You're going to need an extra suitcase on the way home just for your new clothing.
ReplyDeleteI love the picture of your family.
