Mbarara, Uganda
Ugandi (Hello)
Only two more days till we are off to Kenya. The Lord has truly showed up in Mbarara and his love continues to touch the hearts of so many. My love for Africa grows stronger everyday I am here and the people capture my heart more and more.
Being here has truly been a blessing, we have been well taken care of by a local pastor here, pastor Solomon who, let me tell you, is the funniest ugandan man you will ever meet. A few running jokes here is that he is going to marry us off for herds of cows, now, by no means would I take his offer but a couple thousand cows wouldn’t hurt for all you men interested in marrying me haha
The food had been exceptional but I will say, I may have gained a pound or two. My team and I can’t seem to get enough of this tortilla like bread call Chupoti, that we eat with almost every meal so I really don’t expect to see my figure for a few homes after returning home. Other that that my time spent here has truly been rewarding.
Saturday we had a huge concert with tons of ugandan artists and danced it out African style all night long, literally all night long. The people here have such a desire to know God and please him more and more everyday.
I’m missing all of you and can’t wait to share with you details of how God has moved here and the wonderful things I have seen and experienced. Please continue to tune in and pray for the Lord to show up as he did here in Kenya.
