Graduation Dinner!


Last evening I took the Bongolo Nursing students and two other professors (Lisa and Claude) out to eat at a local restaurant, "Chez Marie Therese". Some of them had never before been to this restaurant. We were celebrating their Graduation which was held this morning! Each of the eight students could invited his or her spouse or family member. There were nineteen of us in all.

Marie prepared rice, fermented manioc root, French fried sweet potatoes, fish chicken in palm nut sauce, porcupine and another one or two wild bush meat dishes. There was more food on our private buffet table than we could eat and the rest of the food was taken home by the new graduates!

  1. Yeah! We knew of you, Carolyn, in Omaha when we were at Pastor Thune's church. But now, we know of you because of Lisa who is a native of our church in the Chicago area. She can tell you about my kids, but not so much about how we pray for you and your work. AND for God's huge successes as these folks graduate! Thank you!
