Celebrating Jordan Day

We had a busy day today as we set up our classroom and prepared tomorrow's lessons. All our students have arrived. There will be eight or nine students, three from the Congo and five or six from Tanzania.

Our day ended with a special feast to honor our Founder Fr. Jordan. The Salvatorian priests joined the Sisters for a special meal (see picture).

Cultural note: We Americans asked when and where the feast would be. Our African sisters replied, "Maybe here.. maybe around seven."

We chuckled as we considered how hard we Americans work to try to get RSVPs!
