Moruti James is coming to my graduation! I had the good fortune of working for Moruti James Mpopang and the Naledi Baptist Fellowship from 2002 to 2005. Those three years were some of the most shaping experiences in my life. Hearing that he is going to be able to be at my graduation in June propelled me to look at some of my pictures from my years in Botswana. Seeing the faces of my friends takes me back and makes me homesick for Gaborone. I mainly worked with the young men who had just finished school as well as the youth group. It is interesting to hear how much they have all grown up in just a couple of years. They are the reason I am here at Fuller. I wanted to learn about what I was doing and how to work more effectively. Now I'm planning on starting a PhD. But looking at those pictures just makes me want to go back and get my hands dirty again.

Here is a picture of Moruti James, myself and his oldest son Lebang, and Morekoludi his youngest.
