Entrance to the home of Evangelist Simon Kibarabara, and Gudrun Larsen's (GL) 'Second home' in Indgangen til evangelist Simon Kibarabaras hus, som blev Gudrun Larsens (GL) 'andet hjem' i Tanzania. Simon Kibarabara havde været under uddannelse til sygehjælper på Ndolage, men havde så følt kald til arbejdet som evangelist. GL mødte Simon første gang i 1950, da han bad om hjælp en sen aften. GL kom gående i mørket sammen med sine kolleger og lo ad noget, da de så Simon, som var faldet med sin cykel og havde slået sit ben, og cyklen var gået i stykker. Allerede dengang lagde GL mærke til Simon, fordi han lo med dem, selv om han ikke havde spor grund til det, men han kendte hemmeligheden i at glæde sig med de glade. Senere kom Simon og hans familie til at betyde meget for GL. Foto 1984

Description
Entrance to the home of Evangelist Simon Kibarabara, and Gudrun Larsen's (GL) 'Second home' in Tanzania. Simon Kibarabara had been at Ndolage, preparing for a career as a health care assistant, but he had a vocation for working as an evangelist. GL first met Simon in 1950, when he asked for help late one evening. GL was walking along the road with her colleagues. They were laughing about something, when they saw Simon, who had fallen off his bike. He had hurt his leg, and his bike was damaged. Already then GL noticed Simon, as he laughed with them although he had no reason for laughing. But he was able to be pleased with other people's happiness. Simon and his family later became very important to GL. Photo 1984.
