Extra! Extra! Read All About It!

Yesterday, a local newspaper reporter arrived at Gamasara while Kate and Nate were busy buying supplies in town. Anna, the Mama at Angel House, and Abuid, our pastor, picked 2 kids to be interviewed. They introduced me, and I thought I was off the hook. Not so!
After Anna, Abuid, Bhoke, and Joseph were finished talking, the reporter called me over. He asked me why I had come to Tanzania and what my duties are. I enjoyed talking with this young man until he started taking pictures! How I wished Nate and Kate were there; they're much more photographic than me, and they deserve the credit for Gamasara, not me. ( I haven't had a haircut since August, and my shirt was so stretched it would fit a gorilla!)
I began grabbing Angels, strategically placing them in front of me as much as possible. I'm excited the newspaper is interested in Gamasara, and I hope to have Marwa, a local fundi, make a frame for the article with the picture of all of the Angels in front of Gamasara. I just wish Nate and Kate were in the photo, too.
