Another Day In Paradise

This picture is of the students that are beneficiaries of scholarships from CLA. It also includes Mary Omollo, Student Financial Aid Director, Meghan Wilson, CLA Vice President,and Ed Fischer, CLA Executive Director. This picture was taken in front of the Byang Kato Memorial Chapel. Ed will be having dinner next week with two of the scholarship student families to get better acquainted and capture stories of how the students plan to use their education when they graduate.


Here some of our team members are posing with Mary Omollo and Margaret, one of the Masters students that hosted us for lunch esterday. She and her husband Moses are from Nigeria. She prepared several traditional Nigerian dishes that amazed the entire team. I am very excited about being invited for dinner on Thursday evening.


Last evening we enjoyed a wonderful evening of food and fellowship at Don and Patrice Penny’s home. Having known them for over 8 years and worked with them on several short term mission trips, it feels so comfortable to spend time with them reflecting on our accomplishments on this trip so far. Kathy completed the data base entry of the donated equipment and Mesfin and Mike worked tirelessly on installing several routers and repeaters in the library. These enhancements should significantly improve the performance of the wireless network on this segment of the campus. Earlier in the day, we reviewed the campus wireless network diagram and planned the changes we will implement the rest of this week.
