“Last year, Kenyan leader Kennedy Odede published an article in the New York Times entitled ‘Slumdog Tourism’ writing that ’slum tourism turns poverty into entertainment, something that can be momentarily experienced and then escaped from.
People think they’ve really ’seen’ something– and then go back to their lives and leave me, my family and my community right where we were before.’ This article ignited a flurry of blogging activity where short-term missions trips, in addition to ‘Slumdog Tourism,’ were tagged as ‘Ghetto Tours’, ‘Poverty Safari’s’ and even ‘Poverty Porn.”‘

Who is Brenda?
Brenda is a brave one. She stutters yet is a national speaker. She loves teaching so much she’s been a substitute teacher for over 20 years. She’s brave enough to enter any classroom at a middle school. She also simply loves teaching groups, whether they are teens or adults. You could say she was created for this, stuttering and all. She has been in youth ministry for 34 years and has no plans to “grow up” and be a real pastor. She bravely loves teenagers, especially that middle school age. She has served in her church, New Covenant Fellowship of Manassas, Virginia, since 1990 and they will probably bury her there.
