History of Smile!

In less than 6 weeks I'll be headed to Africa to work at Smile Africa, through Africa Inland Mission organization!!
I am full of mixed emotions trying to prepare for this trip, which is so foreign I don't really know how, and I have had a successful garage sale. I do not own any furniture!!!  It is really freeing to get rid of a lot of stuff, that kind of weighs you down from picking up and going somewhere!

Below is the link to a website where Kenny had an interview with Pastor Ruth who started Smile Africa Orphanage. If you would like to learn more about it please go to the link and read through the interview. He also displays great photographs of the area and this will give you a better idea of where I'll be!
