First Day at Tumaini


Our first day in Tumaini is done and we are back at Grace House. Just finished dinner and I wanted to update you on our day.

Because of last nights rain, we could not take our usual way into the slum. The amazing Philip found a way into the church coming from the east through a gravel pit with several locked gates. With a few phone calls the gates were opened and we made it. We managed to have a rain free day for the most part and moved, with the help of many Tumaini members, a hugh amount of merum, rocky dirt we are using to cover the mud bog that covers the church property. Many wheelbarrows full are left to spread. the sack We’ll be back at it tomorrow.

Blessings, J

The team is working well together and everyone is feeling tried but good. We’ll all take a turn at updating the blog tomorrow evening.

Hitting the sack early tonight. More later
