I now feel that i was part of the opening ceremony even though i missed the session, as i was somewhere in the air….excitedly counting the minutes…to land at the Dulles airport and then …head on to the beautiful Shenandoah Valley and the exciting learning and sharing opportunities that one gets here at the SPI. After my SPI 2009 experience…i went home to Kenya…and lobbyied…as many friends as i could about coming…and am glad to say…both Faisa…(my Somali-Kenya Sister and Milicent, my Kenya-Kenya sister) came…so who knows how many we will get to come next??…and the good thing is…when they do come…they get so much more than they expected!!… For instance Milicent came for the training…and decided to register for the Credit…Masters program…and am so thrilled about this…

Well done SPI….God bless you.

Jacinta.
