Viewing Post for: Women's House Building 2017

Date: Saturday, March 4
Location: YES, with the women still at the village in Lake Eyasi

Today was the tour of the houses of the villages ladies. Each house has a pretty intense story and pretty bad roof. The roof last night at Christine's old house, let in the rain, they stayed up all night. We need to buy a mattress tomorrow so she can have her first night in her new house. The picture is of Christine and one of the ladies. The way it came to be was we were touring the houses and Chris had this women come over and want to walk with her. Everybody was taking pictures. The women put her arm around Chris and said "picture". And she brought her face to Chris's. There you go. Chris's words "I feel like some of the relationships I am having herew are as deep as some I've had my whole life. Every time we go to the school with the women I have gotten to know, they want to hug me, they want to know how I am. I have to show them with my face so they know. I was walking with a group of women and Lightness had to explain to me they wanted me to know I was beautiful. I was stunned. I think they are beautiful. In their brokenness, their challenges, their smiles still shine through."
