I have been studying my introduction in Samburu since Thursday. The first part \u201cEserian, kaaji nkera Claudia\u201d (translation: Hi, I\u2019m Claudia) has been very difficult to learn because it doesn\u2019t make any sense for me, either in English or Spanish.<\/span><span class=\"apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Anyway, the mass was very nice, just like last Sunday. There was very catchy music and more students than adults. However, there were two differences\u00a0today: The first one was that the chorus was composed of women and some young men who are very close to the church, instead of students like last Sunday. The second was that today Father Memo was the one who celebrated the mass. This means that the mass was in English (good for me\u2026 I\u2019m understood!!!).<\/span><span class=\"apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Father Memo talked about faith. He said that we have to take risks with faith in ourselves. Through his speech he invited the Samburu people to go to school and learn. He talked about a young man (a warrior) who went to another city, but since he hadn\u2019t gone to school he never learned Swahili (the official language of Kenya) so he couldn\u2019t understand what others from his own country were telling him. He couldn\u2019t read, so he couldn\u2019t understand any of the signals in the city either. He felt really frustrated. I\u2019m understanding something: the missionaries are here not just to talk about Jesus Christ and promote a religion\u2026 they are in Barsaloi to teach them about education, health, having productive projects (and now even empowering women!) I like it!!<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">My presentation was a success\u2026even though I confused some words and the Samburu laughed\u2026 but they liked it. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/iYhWpcL8i3I?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">After the mass some ladies approached me to said hello and give me support for my Samburu speech!!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8Ru_0MDtxGQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s1\">In the afternoon I went with sister Katherine to a meeting with two groups of ladies: Saint Francis and The Beads. They work making bracelets, collars and earring in very nice and colorful designs. Later, I would like to talk more to them when I know them better. My workshops with these two groups are already scheduled: Tuesday and Friday with a group and Wednesday and Sunday with the other. It took me one week to organize this but it is finally happening!! Tthis week I am very excited because I will get to work with more women!!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunday &#8211; Mass day Today father Memo is going to introduce to the community.
