During our previous trip to Minembwe, I ran short of backpacks for the orphans. I had only two backpacks left as I faced three girls. I asked if any of the three would volunteer to wait until I came back to Minembwe, which ended up being eight months later.

This girl, Namajana, volunteered quickly, so I told her I would bring back for her an extra special backpack.

I bought a backpack and asked a friend of ours to stitch Namajana’s name on it. What a grateful smile when I presented the backpack to Namajana.

We’ve also just posted a few miscellaneous photos of Bella, Sophia, and Aimee playing in our “Peyot” (gazebo-esque building) on Facebook and Instagram/Website.

More photos of what we’ve been up to coming soon.
