Welcome to "Through a Glass Darkly" - my blog about my service trip to Malawi, Africa.

I left Canada on December 30th for Blantyre, Malawi, AFRICA. I worked with Friends of Malawi Fellowship (FOMF), the organization headed by my aunt Phyllis Labrentz. I taught English language and literature, helping secondary high school students learn to read and write English well enough to pass the government exams.
During that time I was also kept busy teaching guitar, singing, and assisting my aunt.
I left Malawi on July 19th and returned to Canada on July 20th.

AROUND BLANTYRE

There are dozens and dozens of these little shops along the highway into downtown Blantyre.

Ali Baba: Mum's favourite pizza/chicken hangout for taking a much-needed break.

What does it say about a country where these are for sale along the road?

Another shop

And another shop...

Full moon on the drive back home. The sun sets at 6:00--full dark by 6:45.

Lunch at Chichiri Shopping Centre

Different...

Sign for the PAOC church downtown.

Not everyone in Malawi is poor.
