Our church has a refugee ministry that Ross and I have recently gotten involved in. We have been spending some time helping the Izabayo family get situated here in Houston, TX. They came over from Africa about a year ago, where they had previously lived in various refugee camps for ~10 years. TEN YEARS!!! There are 6 kids, ranging from 2 to 17 years old. Ross and I have had quite a good time getting to know them :) We had a "Spring Clean" clothes drive at church and collected quite a variety of things. Ross and I hauled a car full of donations down to the families. The pictures tell the story...
The donations took up their whole porch!
Bonair.
Little Hope is quite the character, definitely not camera shy...
Hmmm, Monkey on your back Ross?
Ross entertaining the boys... or maybe the other way around :)
A couple other refugee families came to get some goodies!
I think that the adults favorite item was a Swahili to English phrase book. They LOVED it! They said it would help them learn English. Quiz next week! :)
