Team Uganda

Hey everyone!

We just finished up our time in northern Uganda. We were the first ORU team to travel to Gulu and it was quite the incredible experience! We did two church services, got to go door to door in a nearby village, and got to visit one of the refugee camps. Most of the people who lived in these camps have returned to their home villages, but this one was still fairly intact. We also were able to listen to a woman who was abducted by the LRA and spent ten years with them (in Joseph Cony's camp) before she escaped. It was very moving and heartbreaking to see how she is still affected by her time. It was definitely a blessing to be up there. We also got to go to a prison and speak to the inmates. 18 inmates received Christ! It was really incredible to see how the church within the prison is very vibrant and strong. It was definitely a highlight for all of us!

Yesterday we traveled ALL DAY to Jinja. We got to hope on a lil boat boat on Lake Victoria and see the source of the Nile River. It was pretty sweet!

Please pray for Toni, Joe, and I. We've been pretty sick these last few days and we are about to move into day-long seminars/services for the next few days, so we need to be top notch! And pray for the seminars. We have a lot on our shoulders, but the Lord is faithful and we expect him to move!

Blessings!
