Thursday: after Mass and breakfast, we visited the grade school near the mission. Sister Felisiana, SDS teaches there. There are over 600 students and 15 teachers. The children were happy and well behaved.

We planned for class and met the sisters from throughout Tanzania and the Congo who are arriving for the class. We start on Friday- can't wait!!

This afternoon we were given a tour of the gardens. The sisters grow many fruits and vegetables for themselves and to sell -  bananas, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, oranges, tangerines, and much more!
