Africa at Last!

This Sabbath, a group of students and staff from Maxwell Adventist Academy went out to distribute water to the Maasai people. We drove a big truck carrying a large water tank out into the boonies. When we arrived in a small village we began filling whatever containers the people brought us. We filled anything from 1 gallon jugs to 55 gallon drums. It was quite the experience. 
But the most fun I had was with the kids, who were shy at first, and then they began to warm up to us. Pretty soon we were playing all kinds of crazy games and taking pictures of ourselves. These kids are fascinated by being able to see themselves on a digital camera screen. They were having a blast. I gained a great blessing this day by just spending a little time with a bunch of kids who have so little, yet so much.
