yesterday was such an awesome day. alan and dorothy graham were in town to speak to the kids about missions and zimbabwe. but, before they spoke with the youth, shannon held a luncheon for them and some special guests to help getting funding to start up the graham’s new orphanage project “jabulani.” now more than ever, i am STOKED for zim. getting to meet the people who changed my life two years ago when i first heard about their life in zimbabwe was so amazing.
you might be asking yourself, how did they change her life without her even meeting them? well, the answer is simple: hearing their story and learning about the problems facing zimbabwe, i feel in love with the country. they changed the way i view my life here in the states, and how i view the world. they opened up my eyes to a part of life i had never seen, heard of, nor experienced.
and when i left last night, i said my good-byes to alan and dorothy. it wasn’t sad at all to see them go because i know i will see them again come july, only next time they will have the home field advantage…
