“June 6, 2016 I felt God come alive in me.  I heard a whisper when I was 5 years old that one day I would go to Africa and teach kids and today 46 years later it came to fruition. Praise God! I have never felt as close to God as in that first classroom.  He brought to my knees.

What a tremendous gift from the Good Lord above.  Then, all week long I felt that he was teaching me things I never thought in a million years I would understand.  All I can say is that I felt very much at home.  God was leading me to my purpose! Praise the living God!”

Teachers saw students growing weary as the day went on, not because they lacked motivation, but because they lacked nourishment.

But today, hope is being served—one plate at a time.
