Conejo Valley is here!

The Aggies left and we really had a blast while they were here.
Still excitement gets the better of us, as we receive more visitors this week from California. Conejo Valley church of Christ is here to spend a week long camp with the kids and team. The team also will be having sessions with part of this group to improve their teaching skills and becoming better leader in front of God's eyes and the students that we serve.
On Friday half of the group from Conejo Valley visited the streets, on reaching our in center Eastleigh, we divided up into groups to visit different bases. Some team went as far as the town center. Of course this is always an interesting venture for our visitors, but all team reported positive reception from all the bases, street friends they met on the bases and along the streets as they walked. Some got the experience of a Matatu drive, (public transport), their comment is they have never seen or experienced anything like it...loud music,
money being collected by a tout/conductor.
On Saturday was more fun, the kids got their feet size measured-so that shoes can be bought, they got to make a pinyatta, make cookies which tasted awesome. Sports shoes will be bought for the marathon that is coming ahead of us, all team-student body is getting ready and really excited about this. It will be a 10km run....
Hope we are all up to it!
