Today was my first full day in Ndoleleji. I spent my first night in this hostel that is run by a local parish Mwanza. A couple of Fr. Don's helpers took me to see Lake Victoria and around the local market.
After arriving last night, I slept 15 hours, and spent the rest of the day unpacking. I am living in s pretty large house, which is about a 5 minute walk from the main Maryknoll complex. It's alread amazing to see how much work Fr. Donnie (from NORTH Weymouth), Fr. Michael, and Fr. Dan have put in throughout their lives to help the people here.
The solar powered lights just went out for the night, which means I'll be getting to bed soon. There are 2 guards that are stationed in front of my house, so it looks like the hyenas will need to go through the back if they want a piece of me!
Talk to you soon,
Sean
P.S. Let's go Celtics...keep me posted on how they're doin against the Heat!
I haven't talked to you in a while but I heard you were doing this, it's so great! I would love to do something similar someday. Congratulations! I admire your commitment... Stay well!
