we're back!

We are back from our three day camp and we are already feeling sad that it has gone by so fast. Camp Badilika was a real eye opener for me and as we sat in the small bus in the cold morning, I was just thinking of the work that was waiting for us. We had to make some very hard decisions which we were not looking forward to. The kids sat quietly feeling sad because they knew that we had to select five of them who will be taken into the Kamulu program. Luckily for us, some of the team members from Kamulu came to help us make the decisions. When we got to Eastleigh, we immediately started working on the kids' life stories.
God really works in mysterious ways because he really helped us through. As we did the life stories we came to realize that most of the kids that were in camp had been on the streets for a short time and had run away because one reason or another, most of which could be taken care of if we reconciled them back and talked to their families.
We finally selected six of the boys but because we did not have enough time, most of the tests could not be done and so we planned on their stay in Eastleigh so that we could do that early on Monday.
We hope that on Monday every thing goes well so that they will be taken into our program and get to 'badilika'(change) their lives as they learned in the camp.we will also get to know their names on Monday too.
