Greetings from Ewu! That is currently where we are on our trip. This is Sister Orsoea's home town, where we stopped last night for dinner when we first got here. It was about a 4 hour trip from Gwagwalada and Anawim and we are staying at a monastery. I got up at 3:30 for early prayer, everyone else slept in till 5 when Mass started. This place is beautiful, a very different setting than anywhere else thus far, a much cooler temperature and tropical as well. Today we are making food, and feeding the destitute. Should be a great experience, as we have learned a lot so far. We met another American here, her name is Elizabeth and she is studying herbal medication here at the monastery. All is well, and we look forward to what God has in store.

Rob, this entire trip you've taken is inspiring. Not only have you and your teammates contributed to the people with whom you’ve lived in Africa, but you have contributed to us at home as well, by allowing us to witness your courage, faith and love of God’s people. I admire you tremendously. God bless and protect you and the entire NATIVITY : NIGERIA team. Safe home.
Love You and miss you like crazy baby brother! I think you have found your "true" calling!
