Going on safari to meet the people
In my second missionary experience I worked in a valley inhabited by descendants of the mythical war-like ‘Zulu’, by then soothed and devoted to cattle raising. Through my safaris (trips-visits) I visited many sick people in the most remote villages and I baptized very many children. Nothing can cancel from my mind the party atmosphere of the children in every village I visited. They showed cheerful faces every time that I took them on my pickup for a drive. We missionaries assisted the people with the distribution of food in the more critical months and of blankets in the coldest months. Together with them we celebrated the harvest festivals. Together we shared meals made out of solid porridge and vegetables consumed eating with the hands.
