MISSION: Uganda Blog Update 02-10-2024

Greetings everybody. In case you were still wondering, we made it back to Uganda!

Thank you all for praying. I think this was quite possibly the smoothest return trip to Uganda we’ve ever had.

Anna got us packed up in record time. This time around, I put Apple AirTags in each piece of luggage so I could track our bags in realtime. It was kind of cool. The minute they’d unload the bags from the hold of the plane, I could see the bags moving around on my phone. Before any of our bags rolled out in Entebbe, I knew we had all of them. What a relief!

The folks in customs barely gave us a second look. So no hassles this time. Our mechanic met us with our car. We made it to the hotel without trouble. We spent a couple of days resting, in which our mechanic fixed a few extra things. Then we traveled the 4 hours home.

There were no rats waiting for us this time. I hired a lady to clean while we were away, check for rats, and put out poison if needed. That did the trick. No rodents and their attendant mess awaited us, and we were able to go straight to bed without having to spend 6 to 7 hours cleaning first. It was a blessing to be able to come back into our home with ease.

We are at home, still getting over jet lag, and working our way through the list of things that you always have to do when you first get back.

Several people gave gifts adding up to a substantial amount of money for the work out at the camp. I almost have enough now to rebuild our Isanja church building. Keep praying. This is a good start, but we still have several humanitarian relief projects desperately needed out at the camp. It would also be a blessing for our support to increase a little more.

Pray for the coming year. We have lots to do. I want to see God accomplish much in 2024.

We are praying for you. Politics in America affects us here too. I am praying that evil will be defeated and that righteousness will triumph.

God bless and keep you.
