Why blog, you ask?

I, Skarbs, HIKED the 3 highest peaks in Africa in January of 2012, all to raise money for the 3 "peak issues" in East Africa: Education, Health, and Environment. East Africa is a place close to my heart. I know the difference that love, belief, and understanding can make in this beautiful part of the world. Join with me as I REFLECT back on this amazing journey!

A Letter...>from St. Jude's School

Hey everyone,

Just so you all know that the students at St. Jude are REAL, and are AWESOME, here's a letter my brother and I just received from our sponsored student.  Enjoy!

Dear Katherine and Carl,

I think you are fine all of you together with your parents and your friends.  I hope you will continue been fine by the power of our God.  Myself, my parents, and my young brothers we all fine together with our friends.  I am going well with my studies and I am happy to study in this school of St. Jude.  I am in grade six in this year of 2011 and next year I hope I will be in secondary.  My favorite subjects are science and maths.  We also study a lot of subject which are: Maths, Science, English, Social Studies, P.E, Kiswahili, P.E, I.C.T, and Library.  My favorite games are football, basketball, high jump, and volleyball and my favorite player in football is Wayne Rooney and the team which is playing is Manchester United which is the most club I love which is in England.  My favorite animals are lions and giraffe and they are all found in our national parks in Tanzania.  Some of the national parks are: Serengeti, Ngorogoro, Manyara, Tarangire mikumi and Kilimanjaro national park which has the highest mountain in Africa.  Welcome in Tanzania and see our tourist attraction.  
   God be with you and all the blessings follow you.  Let the word of God be with you and always remember to read the Bible.
                                                           From your Sincerely Child,
                                                                               V

What I especially enjoy about this letter is the amount of time he spent talking about football (soccer to all you fellow Americans), and that he mentioned P.E. twice in his list of classes. And of course how he loves Jesus.
