Tanzania team Update
Wednesday, July 18

Today was amazing. We were the first group from the Lunch Project to visit Olkakola and to all of us, that was a big deal. I felt really comfortable at this new school since we have already been to the other two but the kids felt the opposite. The kids at this school were a little skiddish and were reluctant to touch us but sort of came around eventually. This was the kids first time getting served rice and beans through the Lunch Project and that was really empowering to see. When we first arrived we were greeted with a song in english that they had learned and lovely drawn posters that we hope to hang in the church. They performed a sort of line dance and the Masai performed as well. We were brought to one of the Masai chiefs home and were welcomed inside to look around and we got to tour around his beautiful garden. It was really cool to see the differences and similarities between the way people live at home and in Tanzania. I am honored to say I was one of the first people to be at the Olkakola school and can’t wait to see what God has in store for the relationship between them and the Lunch Project in the future!
