Updates from Jos & Abuja

Updates from Jos & Abuja (updated 8/12/11 8:00PM EST)

Faith Alive Hospital Team:
The team started the day in Kafanchan with the morning session of the children's rights seminar which they participated in yesterday. Today focused on how to recognize abuse - emotional, physical and sexual. The team then drove back to Jos in the afternoon. They had the pleasure of stopping at Assop Falls, a waterfall on the route, for a bit as well. After lunch, the team said goodbye to most of the Faith Alive Hospital staff and students. They went to Afri-1 a local restaurant for a dinner of hamburgers, milkshakes, and donuts - a welcome surprise! Tomorrow will be the team's final day in Jos before traveling to Abuja early on Sunday morning.

Anawim Home
Team:
Today, the Anawim Home Team again served at the school in preparation of graduation this weekend. In the afternoon they traveled with the Sisters to distribute clothing to the poor. The team described it as "frenzied." After, they closed the day with a 3 hour sunset prayer service.
