The "lost boys of Sudan"
I was just curious how many people knew their story.

I spent the afternoon with 6 of them, some of the best time I have had in awhile. They are so willing to talk about the Sudan and its problems, past and current. It was a lot of fun. If you ever get the chance to meet one, you should.

3. How long have they been in this country???
I heard this story awhile ago, would like to know if they boys are still coming?? It seemed to me that they had such positive outlooks once they got here.

Yeah, they are great. Nothing seems to get them down. I am not sure about new ones are coming with the current conflict. I have invited one of the over for dinner in early January so I will know more and have more stories then.
