Welcome! Karibu!

This blog ("web log") is compiled by Sister Patrice Colletti, SDS to share the stories of our four Sisters who sojourn in Tanzania this summer, June- July 2011. The information below is from their emails; we've edited it for clarity.

Blogs typically go in "reverse chronological order", with the most RECENT posting at the top. So, as you read along, you're reading "backwards" in time, with the most recently received and posted information first.

You can also receive these postings by email! This is an option you can select, but isn't required. Enter your email address where it says FOLLOW THIS BLOG BY EMAIL to set up your email to automatically get a copy of the posting each time a new one goes up. Then, you can read it on your email. You are always welcome to come here to read it as well!

Questions on how this works? Please, contact S. Patrice Colletti at patricecolletti@sbcglobal.net.

Home again, Home again, Jiggity-jog!

Sisters Ellen and Jeanette, along with the Encounter Tanzania participants, arrived home to Milwaukee the evening of July 16, after almost 40 hours of travel. Sister Ellen and Jeanette were part of the Encounter Tanzania program during the first and also the final portion of their immersion experience.

The Encounter Tanzania group brought with them many, many greetings from our Salvatorian friends in Tanzania, numerous little gifts, a smattering of the kiswahili language, considerable jet-lag, and one case of malaria. Please make it a point to invite them to share some of their (combined!) 3,000-plus digital photos of their adventures! Sister Jeanette and Sister Ellen also took some digital movies and, eventually, will produce a wonderful glimpse into life in Tanzania via YouTube or some other method! Yay for digital media!!


And, of course, 

WELCOME HOME EVERYONE!
