Sunday in Uganda

I had my first night here in Jinja - slept okay - the weather is very compatible for sleeping right now although John tells me that this is unusual. The trip from Dubai was long and with the delay still did not make me late. It was a rude awakening to arrive in Entebbe to see health workers all wearing face masks and everyone on the plane had to fill out a form and give forwarding information. I immediately realized that swine flue and influenza are a real threat her and that health matters are important.

I went to church this morning - under the trees - John was the preacher
- and I met a number of people with YWAM as well as missionaries that work with Global Outreach (John's organization).

Last night friends came over who lead an orphanage of 41 children from 7 mons. to 15 yrs. old all of whom have HIV-AIDS. They were heading to the states to meet her parents - he is a national who has not met his in-laws yet. Neat young people!

This evening we have missionary fellowship at someone's house so I will meet some more people and enjoy local scenery.

Tomorrow we begin by leaving at 6:45 and pick up a number of people on our way to the seminary. Things will get busy fast. For now a brief break.

Anyway - that's life for now - time for an afternoon nap and then off to missionary fellowship.
