Before I left, thanks to the generosity of many members of
the TFC family, I was able to collect a lot of donated soccer gear to bring for
the kids!
I was out at Angel House a few days ago and when the kindergarten/nursery school got out, one of the little girls, Neema ran up to me to come with her to change out of her uniform. I walked with her to her room and she starts rambling on in Swahili with the biggest smile on her face, before I know it she is decked out in a complete uniform and she couldn’t be happier! It made me so happy to see how happy she was!

Then when we
walked outside to play “futbol” all of the other little kids ran out decked out
in all of their new gear, I could help but laugh and smile to see how happy
they all were in there “new” soccer clothes, it was incredible heartwarming.
They all kept running up to me saying thank you thank you, and I couldn’t help
but think I hadn’t done anything except bring this stuff over that other people
had donated. The more time I spend with
these precious Angels the more I am learning to truly appreciate the smaller
things in life and recognize the blessings that I am surrounded by.
