Sights of Uganda....


















coming in on the dock at Bethany Village to the Nile river to exploring the fishing village where refugees have settled into safety and a simple life - it's amazingly refreshing to be in God's creation where it's untouched by machines or business- unchanged beauty... sunsets... the big open space known as the "prayer place" and the water of Lake Victoria as far as you can see with a few fishermen casting out nets for the evening's supper...



Psalm 50:1 The Lord, the Mighty One, is God,
and he has spoken;
he has summoned all humanity
from where the sun rises to where it sets.
2 From Mount Zion, the perfection of beauty,
God shines in glorious radiance.

Isaiah 55:12-13"So you'll go out in joy,
you'll be led into a whole and complete life.
The mountains and hills will lead the parade,
bursting with song.
All the trees of the forest will join the procession,
exuberant with applause.
No more thistles, but giant sequoias,
no more thornbushes, but stately pines—
Monuments to me, to God,
living and lasting evidence of God." (the Message)

Snapshots from Uganda...














Why I loved Uganda...
::An amazing team! (more on that to come).
::Little Francis that lives in the Nkumwa house (in means "sanctuary"/"i am protected"
::Making clothes that weigh down your suitcase so you can leave it all behind. (I am proud of my tie-front pants and skirt !)
::Kids that instantly love you, no matter what- kinda like the Lord loves us (without condition or regret) and you get to experience that...
::Red Rover game Ugandan style... It's like red rover mixed with steal the bacon and tug of war, dancing, and singing. Play it.
::Deworming time at the medical clinic... got to see every kid in the school! (don't worry it's just a pill)
::A steaming hot shower thanks to a wood burning fire.
::Houses of kids and their leaders becoming like family
::Beautiful Faces.... see the next post as well...
::The biggest "white ant" mounds you've ever seen
::Ugandan skies...
::Unapologetic curiousity of the kids from surrounding villages- If you have a question or want to know more, seek it out! Explore!! You never know what you'll miss if you don't...
:: Passion Kampala Worship like you've never seen it- Who can doubt this Jesus IS ALIVE! He REALLY is- (watch the video clips from the event if you have a second, and if you want to get excited about Jesus, PLEASE PLEASE watch the Atlanta opening video) I pray that we continue to worship like it. He is something to celebrate!
::The faithfulness of Father is evidenced in nature, people, and His word- posted everywhere... Christ is present in Uganda- no doubt about it. And still there's more to Him.

Our team tasted and saw His goodness every moment and shared it together. Sometimes I wonder if the bread they broke together in Acts meant the bread of LIFE- Christ's LIFE, that is! I am so proud of our students for extending Christ to one anotherand to Uganda- HE, this BREAD, satisfies!!

In order to be glorifiers of God (our chief purpose begins continues and ends IN HIM- ) we must be fully satisfied in Him. He is always better- it's just a matter of whether I am choosing to acknowledge and receive His "betterness". Try Him out... take Him as His word -

He IS our portion that satisfies forever and ever. And ever. And ever...

Faces of Uganda...

Here are some of the beautiful faces we met over the past few weeks... The older girls are the ones the Lord used to sustain us with delicious food, then there's a few of us sitting around before we had our singing and Bible story time, the boy holding up his new backpack (really exciting to give these things away!), my face (sans makeup... that's the look there!) and more images of dancing and playing- activities that filled our time while in Bethany Village.
