I am so excited to announce that a team of senior ORU students are going to be helping us package a presentation for H.I.M. I will be sharing much more about this later, but for now, please pray we can find the right non-profit to partner with us to dig and repair wells for the POKOT people of Northern Kenya. Here is the letter the team sent to me this week:Hello, Michael. I have attached the team picture for you. From left to right, we have Grant Eisiminger, Becky Kwanga, Tripp Hipple (me), Lindsay Thomas, and Daniel Murphree.
Grant: As I mentioned before, each of us are seniors.
The only person that will not graduate this May is Grant. He is double majoring in both mass media productions and theatre. He is the creative on the team. What I mean by that is he thinks outside the box and brings a fresh perspective of life to the table.
Becky: Becky is one-of-a-kind. She grew up in Nairobi, then moved to Oxford, England when she was in middle school. What makes her so special is her joyful personality. I do not think I have ever seen her downtrodden. As I mentioned over the phone, she is awaiting to here from her mother if she needs to return to Kenya in the next couple of days. I pray she gets to stay around. She is a very valuable asset to our team. Her major is public relations and advertising.
Me (Tripp) : I am a mountain man. I grew up in Denver, Colorado and miss the snow when I am in Tulsa. It would be a dream to travel to Valdez and heli-board on some of the world's best peaks. I will be graduating a semester early from ORU and am looking to pursue a career in broadcast news. My major is in broadcast journalism.
Lindsay: Lindsay is also very valuable to our team. She is a brain when it comes to the logistics. Without her, it would almost impossible for us to get everything done. She is also a broadcast journalism major.
Daniel: Daniel is quiet, but powerful. He will be designing your new website and shooting footage for the short impact films. His keen sense of capturing footage and editing will be very helpful to us this semester. He is majoring in mass media productions.
I hope you can know get a grasp of who we are. We are all looking forward to helping you and the Hawns through the use of our talents. We said today how thankful we are to be working under you. Please let me know if you need any other information. Talk to you soon, Michael.
Sincerely,
Tripp Hipple
