Hi Sr. Deb, I am finally getting on Facebook. I just never seem to have the time to sit down and do it. But now I am going to be loyal to it, I hope. I just want you to know that when the Sisters from Zambia and Zimbawbee (not spelled correctly I am sure) that I got the bug for Africa. Inonge, Judith Bingura, Judith Habasune and Blessing were such a joy, I was very sorry to have them leave here. I could have visited with them many more days, weeks, or months. Any way, I can see why you love it. I know some days are not as good as some others, but you must feel very rewarded in your heart every night. Love and miss you, Sr. Therese
Sister Deb is a missionary living in the remote village of Kalomo, Zambia, in central Africa. She is a member of a religious congregation of women called the Presentation Sisters of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Aberdeen, South Dakota, USA. This blog tracks the journey of living and working among some of this world's poorest people.
I'm a Sister of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary from South Dakota, USA. I've been a Formator of youth for 16 years in the South Dakota area. After spending 5 months of a sabbatical year in Zambia, Africa in 2008-09 I've decided to return to Africa to experience life in this culture and to live and minister amidst those who have been made the poorest of the poor.

Wow! I can't imagine unloading a container that way on our farm! My husband would have a heart attack! Good to hear from you. Hope all is well. Lisa
