Most team members will say that there are two big highlights of this mission journey; the house dedication ceremony and the Zoe Hope Compnanions certificate ceremony. We were able to accompany 16 youth and one of the Zoe social workers to the MCK Bio-Intensive Training Center on Saturday morning. These youth are all orhphans and heads of their households. Therefore it is critical for their families survival that they learn not only business and trade skills but they know sound agricultural methods so they they have a secure food supply. These youth inspire us by their enthusiasm for learning and their sheer unfiltered delight at receiveing a certificate at the end of this 3 day training course. They all pledge to teach their newly acquired skills their work goups. We had 16 kids from 16 diffrent work groups, eache work group consisting of 25 to 30 families, each family about 4 kids. You do the math.
