i'm cornfused...

yes, i meant to mispell that.

i just wanted to briefly clarify a few things here that may or may not have been clear. clearly the clarity is clearing the clarification for clearness's sake.
no, but in all seriousness, outside of the confusing mess we've encountered here, there is a bit more confusion regarding who's actually operating the boys' center here and what will happen to it in the future. in summary: i don't know. what i can and must tell you is that iris, this name i've been throwing around, is a beautiful ministry that has a big heart for many places and peoples. northern sudan is one of them. although they have in the past been in charge of this children's home here in khartoum and even currently have a couple iris staff members volunteering, they are not the authority here and only consider themselves friends of this base. at the time of my application to come here and upon writing my letter to some of you, this was indeed an active iris base. but because of many unanswered questions involving resources, disorganization, and leadership, iris decided to gently bow out, but as i said, consider themselves friends. until there is a clear transition made regarding the future of this center, and as far as we're concerned, iris is not active here. you can read about how they've stepped in to help us in my last post, so any support you'd like to send should still be sent to the iris address given. i apologize if this has been miscommunicated or just plain confusing to any of you. if you have any questions, too bad! ha, ok you can email me.

in reality, none of this matters, as we know the truth hasn't changed: God loves these "fatherless", and wants our attention drawn to them, to Him. i continue to wonder and hope for the best possible outcome for this place.
