Transitions

Our second camp comes to a close tomorrow. Our final group of 150 children will be joining us for the first time on Monday. Transition has become a buzzword we use many times a day - the children transition from station to station within a class time, the children transition from class to class, the younger children go home after lunch and we transition to our camp for the older children in the afternoon, and each week, one group completes the camp while we transition into preparing for the next. 

Those tangible transitions are easy to focus on. The interior transitions are far more difficult to explain. The true Vincentian question, "What must be done?" has become a permanent part of my prayer. These children need so much more, beyond the tip of the iceberg we are experiencing in this camp. Systemic change cannot be accomplished by one camp, but it can light a fire in the souls of these children, and especially in the people of this community. 

Please continue to pray for us! We have just crossed the halfway point of our time in Kenya. I look forward to sharing much more with you in the coming weeks.
