We had our sponsored kids over for a great family swimming event! There were lots of kids and they had a blast! Most of these kids never get an opportunity like this and it was just so cool to see them excited. In the top photo is Harrison, Jerry's brother and Todd and Sandy's sponsored child, Samuel, Rebecca's sponsored child, Jerry, our sponsored child, Ruth, Jerry and Harrison's cousin, and Yasmin, Nikki and Darel's sponsored child.
Yasmin also brought with her, 2 sisters, Nicole and Nairobi and there were other sponsored kids that weren't "attached" to us some how. It was a great afternoon and we look forward to spending more time with them and developing relationships with them and their families. It is a joy to see them stop by the camp and say Hi. If you have a sponsored child we encourage you to write a letter to them. Kids come by the school office and ask if they have gotten a letter from their sponsor. Developing a relationship is an awesome experience for you and your child either in person or through correspondence and photos.

Hi Rhea and bunch,
It is hard to believe you have been there a month and have already done so much! Your house is looking great, and I love the pictures of all of your kids at the swim. I am really enjoying reading your blog and learning about your experiences. Elaine has also been sharing your pictures with the staff.
Take care,
Lisa
Hi there Brent and clan,
Glad to see you're all doing well out there and you look like you're having a lot of fun. Hope the camera is serving it's purpose!! We all miss you a lot around here.
Shannon and the rest of the Kindersley bunch.
PS - I have some paperwork here at the office for you. What do you want me to do with it?
Mikaela, Reilly, & Rebecca, I'm sure glad you seem to be enjoying your summer... I hear you've got a really nasty teacher for school this year, and if you misbehave at all she'll tell your mother absolutely everything! :-)
Cathy.
