New Student Social

The Ubuntu boys that are attending Silvermine Academy had a New Student Social tonight.  They got to meet some other students, check to see where all their classrooms are, and get to know some of the teachers.  Tomorrow is the big day!  I'm so excited for them as I know this is going to accelerate their development as men and leaders.  They seemed to have really embraced the opportunity and will have each other to walk through it with.  They will certainly be a crew to reckon with!  There will be 7 in Silvermine Academy (3 Grade 9s, 4 Grade 8s) and 5 new ones in Sun Valley Primary (Grade 7).  But those are in addition to our 3 that were already there.  So, starting tomorrow we will have 15 of the boys in the same school!  At least I'll know where to find them.  
Please pray with us that their first day will be a success.  That they will be comfortable enough in their new surroundings, connect with their teachers, and befriend their classmates.  It's such a major step that God has brought them to and He's prepared to bring it all the way to fruition.
Cheers, Casey
