History of Christianity in Africa trip—Day Two
Two of our students flew in a day later than the rest of the group, thus missing the warm welcome we received at the airport. Brother Matthew wanted Michael Jon Mondovics (pictured) and Long Pham to experience the same level of Kenyan and Franciscan hospitality, so the second half of Professor Cook's teaching on Franciscan art began with a welcoming ceremony.

As did Long Pham…
Then the friars, sisters, professors and students gave Michael Jon and Long an official welcoming.
