A Special Invitation

        The Tanzanian President invited Josephat and some of the children to join her for dinner at the state house on March 8th. They had a wonderful time but for security reasons were not allowed to take pictures at the state house.

A New Doctor

     Most of you know about Simon. He grew up at Samaritan Village and is now one of the doctors at the Medical Clinic. Well, we’re about to have another doctor in the family—Scholastica! She was brought to the orphanage by social welfare when she was just a year old. She’d been found abandoned in Arusha in an area near Lake Manyara. She attended St. Monica Primary School and Scholastica Secondary School. She’s always liked to play netball (volleyball), sing, watch TV, and play with dolls as a child. Her dream was to someday be a nurse. She graduated last summer from Form 6 and was accepted into Medical College where she now plans to be a doctor. She began her studies in October. There’s no doubt she’s going to make a fine doctor!
