Team Video

Hello everyone,
My update today is a link to a video we put together for the visiting team this past Friday, in an effort to highlight their first week here.  As a disclaimer, it is not intended to overview the work here, but to be a simple reel to commemorate a full first week on the ground here.

The images are already emotional for me, because they are attached to names and faces we are coming to know.  Almost all of the children you see are in the program, and are HIV positive. 

There is a woman you will see raising her hands as she speaks (around 1 minute into the vid).  Her name is Danute.  She tells the story of Andy Warren visiting her when she was very sick, washing her without wearing gloves.  "He washed me, and I never forget this."  This was several years ago.  Now she is healthy, though she battles both HIV and TB, and is a leader in the program and in her community.  While her future is uncertain at best, she if full of joy, and one of many compelling people I've had the privilege of meeting.
