I returned from Uganda today. I am tired after the the 18 hours of travel so my blog today will be short. I will post more tomorrow.
When we arrived in Uganda 24 people met us. Pastor Frank, his wife Lydia, his children Leah, Lincoln and Todd Douglas and 21 church members. Even though I only knew Pastor Frank, it was like meeting relatives that you do not get to see very often. There were 2 vans and a car.
The ride was quite an adventure, there are no street lights they drive on the left hand side of the road and there are many pot holes and speed bumps with MANY MANY people walking in the road. Over the week the people that met us plus many more have become my life long friends.
It was amazing to me that although the poverty was more than I imagined the beauty of the people was very powerful. I immediately felt like I belonged.
