Turning Things Over

As I am looking to the quickly coming end of my year here with two of my schools, I am beginning to look at how to make my efforts here sustainable. The reality of short term mission is that, you can do a lot in a year, but being able to set up programs and systems sustainable, should be, or has been for me the end goal. I simply cannot be the older brother to the 120 some odd kids here in Grahamstown, but I can make sure the schools and specific students I have been working with get plugged into the right resources and supports available in the community around. It is getting harder than I thought it would be to figure out how to do this apropriately and say my good byes in a way that leaves the potential for further communication open, but with the reality of how busy life gets.
