Last Sunday I met a man named Simon at church who is a professional counselor and does counseling in schools! I had the opportunity to shadow him on one of his school trainings today. The program is fairly wholistic, in that it covers self awareness, relationships, healthy sexuality, HIV/AIDS and STI prevention, and other issues. He also trains the kids to define problems, and identify/implement solutions as student leaders among their peers. I am planning to attend another longer training in the next few weeks!

The picture is one of the students at Oruba Girls High School presenting her group's dicussion on how to handle prenancy and discord with other students.

    Thanks for sharing what is happening day to day. I love hearing what you are doing and how you are learning from people there as you seek to impact them. I also like seeing pictures of people there as they are living life and being Jesus to one another.

    Thanks for looping us in. I am praying for you day and night. We carry you in our hearts through prayer while you are away from us.
    Diane
