Kenya: Day 2 (5/17)

Pray for:
- building relationships/report with the kids
- that these kids will gain the skills and the vision to stand up from their situation

What happened:
- meeting with ken to talk about the curriculum and the next 3 months
- meeting with Tom, Effy, and Ken about Rwanda
- Lunch with Ken; talked about curriculum
- went to Nakumatt to buy new power strip and journals for the students
- went to Kibera to teach my first class
- rode my first matuta (bus)
- asked the kids (9 students) to tell stories; then asked them which story they liked best and why; if they could make the story better, what would they change
- went home

I'll be running 3 classes simultaneously. 1 group is college aged students. 2nd group is high school aged students. 3rd group is Ken and Gwatala so they can continue the work after I leave. These classes are going to run Monday through Thursday, and then another class that I'm not teaching on Saturdays. Each class runs for about 2 hours.
