Highschools
Part of the first week's activities was teaching AIDS education in Highschools around the area. The schools vary widely in their size and quality. This particular school is run by the Catholics, and has over 1000 students. We had planned an outdoor assembly with the whole school, but the rain pushed us inside to a crammed hall of 200.
The team showed pictures of Canada - wildlife, geography, culture, and normal things like roads and supermarkets.
After answering some questions about Canada, the team gave a presentation about AIDS and prevention. The students were very involved and interested. They understood well and asked good, sometimes hard questions after the presentation.
After I left, the team was swarmed by the kids. They asked them questions and took them around the school to show them their dorms. For some team members it was the first time to present in front of a large audience... I think it was a memorable experience for everyone.

It's hard to believe that you are nearing the end of your stay in Mpigi. When I look back at all of the awesome pictures I am amazed at what you have done in such a short time and know that it will be hard to say good bye. Enjoy Kenya. Love you, Morgan.
What an impact you must be having on the young people of Mpigi! God bless you all!! I pray that the Holy Spirit will give you much wisdom when faced with the difficult questions and situations.
Thanks again, Trevor, for keeping us in touch. We are so grateful.
Much love from Green Bay to Jonathan from Sara, Mom, and Dad.
