Matembo and morogoro

So they said the container will be ready on Monday. That didn't happen. I just got it today but I will have to tell that story next. So I went to Morogoro to Jordan University college for 4 days to visit friends that I met there last time I was in Tanzania. It is amazing how much the place has grown. They have 3500 students now and many new buildings from the last time I was here. They are continuing to build a new dormitory for the seminarians and a new chapel. Uluguru mountain is beautiful in the background. I was very happy to see it agreed. I got many greetings. It was wonderful to remember stories from 3 years ago. I was only there for 2 months last time but everyone remembers me. I was so impressed.
I went to matembo which is where F.r Ferdinand Lukoa is from. It is on the other side of the mountain so I thought this is a quick trip. 4 hours the way the roads are. Wow. Long journey. But I was very happy to greet his mother in the village and bring gifts from america. I told her that her son is doing well in America and she was thrilled. It felt like going home when I arrived there and seeing the warm welcomes. It felt as if I picked up right where I left off last time. Life is good. Maisha mzuri.
