Suba Lakers Club Co-Founder Joe Peterson and his wife, Daneen, had the opportunity to take a short trip back to Kenya in July. They first visited Mbita where Joe had lived and worked for 10 years with Christ's Gift Academy. There they met up with
all the girls in Primary School who live around Mbita. It was a total
surprise to them. The girls were called together for a meeting and then suddenly, across the football pitched, walked Uncle Joe and Auntie Daneen! As the girls saw them walking, they
started running toward them and were greeted with hugs and hellos.
Joe and Daneen also traveled to the rural places outside of Kisii to attend the Secondary School Regional Ball Games. Of our 24
girls currently in secondary school, 14 of them were playing with their
school teams at this Championship. Joe and Daneen had a wonderful time getting to watch each
of them play and spend some time together between matches over the
2-day tournament. Even though it was brief, we were all very grateful for
this special time with them again.
