Sunday, we went to mass which was filled with plenty of dancing and singing.
Following we played with all of the kids for a while.
We also interview a couple of the older children about Susan Golds program.
We also had an interview with this girl, a 17 year old. She is old enough to have been effected by the virus extensively before Anti-RetroViral drugs.
The interview with Sister Mary was very informative and inspirational. She helped found Nyumbani with Father D'Agostino in 1992 and is now head of the organization since his passing. There were two main things that she wanted everything to know and have. One is that HIV is just a medical condition. It is just like diabetes or HPV. The other is to be 'Compassionate'.

Your pictures and comments are so great! It really is like we all are experiencing your trip from afar. It was refreshing to hear the word "compassionate" from the Catholic church. Sounds like our churches here could learn a thing or two from a different perspective. Anyway, thanks for the adventure!!
