VLM Kitale 2014 Introductions

For those of you who do not know me, my name is Emily Edwards and I am the coordinator for the VLM Kitale group this summer.  I am a DePaul graduate and I have been living in Chicago for the past year working as a nanny.  When I return to the states I will be moving to St. Louis, MO to participate in Vincentian Mission Corps as a full-time volunteer.

I am happy to return to Kitale, Kenya for the 3rd time this summer with the Vincentian Lay Missionaries.  We are excited to have a new group of volunteers this year.  They will be introducing themselves on the blog over the next week while I am in Nairobi.    

My hope is to share my love for the people of Kitale with the new volunteers.  I am excited to be reunited with the Daughters of Charity in Kenya.  These inspiring women have given so much of themselves to the wonderful work that they are doing in Kenya.  I look forward to seeing many of the same smiling faces of the children and friends that I have made in Kenya.
