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.

(VIDEO SET #1) OFF TO MALAWI

I was not able to upload video while in Malawi, so I've now started to go WAY back in my computer files, to the beginning of my journey.
Now that I've been back home for a month and a bit, it's time to see it anew: absorb it, think on it, and try to make meaning where I can.
*Note
This is raw footage--no editing--so please, look/listen past the moments of poor audio/visual to share my experience. Thank you.
