The Future of the Nations and more Pictures




My Students
Josiah, Merilyn and Taylor. We spend every morning together. Josiah and Merilyn are the children of Dr. Adamson and Elizabeth Phiri, our Advanced Primary Health Care class leaders. Josiah is 9 and Taylor and Merilyn are both 11. Assistant Professor Tim (Amed Fahd) Grey comes in when we need a real teacher. They are wonderful students. We work in the common room where we all take meals together and begin right after breakfast. Elizabeth had to return to their home town in Zambia because of the death of her mother. It worked out well that I came and was able to get them started in their curriculum's while she is away. Elizabeth and Caleb (their newborn) will be home in mid-December. I'm sure Josiah and Merilyn are looking forward to that. When I am able to get a family picture, I will tell you much more about this incredible family and their future plans, which will surprise you. It did me.

Connie,

What a mom! You turn down getting pampered at one of those legendary Senegalese Gene Juarez Spas and let Taylor cut your hair. You are truly an inspiration!

Hey Taylor you get good at that and maybe I'll let you give me a trim when you get back!

Hey Miss Taylor you get good at that hair business and I might let you have a go at me when you get back!

I reckon I have to let you cut my hair now since I posted it twice. Maybe you could give me some technology lessons as well!
