There is no such thing as a God-forsaken town: Reciting Poetry to Refugees

Friday, January 11, 2008

I just read this touching story at the blog called What an African Woman Thinks about people helping out the refugees in Nakuru in any way they can, including reciting poetry to them.

Ruth: I've been privileged to live in three of the world's great cities (Nairobi, Port-au-Prince and Asunción, Paraguay) as well as spending time in many others (including nine weeks in Paris as a college student). I just moved to a new city: Kampala, Uganda. I've also lived in smaller towns in three countries. In all of those places there have been difficult days, but I've never found a city or town yet where God is not, and I don't anticipate finding one in the future, either. The name of my blog comes from the song "Love is Always There," by Carolyn Arends.
