The Article in the Patriot Ledger


By Ian Crittenden

Today there's an article in the Patriot Ledger explaining the scene yesterday as the Furnace Brook Middle School Malawi Pangea Council finally had a WebCast with Isa Ebowe, Mr. Cyrus Jeke, and best of all, the children of Malawi.

Before the Webcast yesterday, Mr. Meehan, Laura, Aaron, Danny, Meghan, Dan, and I had a telephone confenrence with the orphans. I have to say getting up extra early to arrive at school at 7:20 am was more then worth it. The orphans and the officers asked questions, and we and the children of Malawi answered. Near the end they sang us a song called "May-o May-o." All the officers loved the song.

Now that we've seen them, heard them, it's great to put a face to some of the people we're helping. And in a way it's helping us here in America to feel more a part of the world. Thank you, fellow Malawi students.
