The Rest of the Story

Completely humbled & grateful.  Beyond this, I have few words. 

I learned today - for the first time - a more complete picture of how I came to be selected for this Caravan.  I do not know how to appropriately express gratitude other than to be humbled by the compassion and grace at play.  I learned today that a person gave up her own grant to make this journey because she felt I needed to go.  And not only that, she lobbied to make this happen. 

May I be able to embody this grace, mercy and sacrificial giving in order to share it with all I meet in Zimbabwe.

  3. Wow, That is wonderful. I think this is an example of "the true impact of a person is not what people say about you to you, but what they say behind your back!!!!!"
