We arrived safely back at RVA late Tuesday night/early Wednesday morning. Our good friend, Ryan, picked us up at the airport and everything went very smoothly in the "temporary" arrivals terminal (Jomo Kenyatta International Airport had a fire several weeks ago, so we weren't sure how crazy it would be at the airport). Everyone was so happy to be back in our home and on campus again. The next day, the kids were already off and running to see friends and we set to work unpacking our things from storage and getting settled.
The students started arriving on Friday (new students) and Saturday (returning students) and classes began today (Monday). We have definitely hit the ground running!
Jeff is back in his position of dean of students. This term he is also coaching JV boys football (soccer). My job role changed a bit in the days before we arrived and now I am teaching Art Survey (to 10th and 11th graders) and elementary student support. Even though it was a last minute switch and I was a bit nervous about the change at first, I think it will be a great fit!
We are so thankful for everyone who has partnered with us to get us this far -whether it be prayer support or financial -we are so blessed by each of you!
