HOME AGAIN
Friday, September 23, 2011
I have just returned from Tanzania, but to say I am "home" doesn't feel quite right, for Tanzania (and Uganda) feel as much like home to me as does the U.S. I have never felt more completely alive than I did during our one-week visit to the Shepherds Jr. Primary School in Arusha. Our days and nights were filled with music and open hearts. The children are unspeakably beautiful, and every moment felt essential. It wasn't all smiles and happiness--there were heart-wrenching stories, stone-serious conversations, and more. But it was all real, and in that, there is immeasurable fullness and grace. The fact that these children so willingly open their hearts and raise their voices to us, is one of the deepest blessings of my life. There are a few pix on the photos page (with more to come), and much more available on the OneVoice website: www.onevoicecommunity.org. Below is a peek at a "music video" we recorded with the kids on our last day there:
In Love,
