Visiting the Aboretum

Greetings. This week on Monday, the single mothers who come for the Monday program had the chance to go on a trip to one of Nairobi's small recreation areas called Arboretum. Mauryn told me that only those who had been frequent in attendance and participation in class were to go. There was excitement on the women's faces and they looked forward to it. On the way, I could hear some of the mothers comment about down town and how now it looked good. "Hata maji zinawagika" (even water is pouring), they said, talking about a fountain that the city has put up.



At the Aboretum, they had lots of games and bonding activities different from their daily routines. They also had some time to walk around and look at the trees and flowers there. They really did have a wonderful time. On our way back, they could not help asking when the next trip will be!!!

How blessed it is to brighten people's lives by deeds of love and kindness. Our thanks to all of you who help make this possible.
