Global Community: Tanzania Summer 2011: 06/27/11

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.

6/27/11 Photos from S. Virginia and S. Barbara

Sister Elice left this morning for Ndanda, a small village about a half hour away. She has some shopping to do and then she is heading to Mtwara, which is like driving to Wausau. She will do some business and then at 5:00 p.m. she will pick up Sisters Ellen and Jeanette. They will arrive here about 8:00 p.m., have a little supper and spend the night. Tomorrow they will be taken to Lupaso, about a half hour away, where they will spend a week.

Here are some photos.
