Warner team has arrived

i

The Warner Pacific duo arrived punctually Tuesday evening. Annet Gune (the nurse from St. Bartholomew’s) and I were on hand to pick them up. They had an immediate opportunity to adjust to life in East Africa when we woke up yesterday morning, eager to bathe, to discover that the water to the neighborhood had been cut off!

Dirty or not, we traveled into Kampala so that they could see a bit of the city. Lexie has been to Uganda before, when she studied here for six months. It was fun for her to reminisce about the bits of Kampala that she remembered. Jeremy has traveled extensively in Asia, but this is his first trip to Africa.

We had prayers last night with the children at Kampala House, singing Bari and English songs, and shared some sweets with them. (Then I instituted a major tickle war to get that sugar worked out of them. Phiona was declared the winner since she was never caught. That girl can run!)

We’ll spend the next few days running errands and catching up with some friends in Kampala. Our plan is to head to Adjumani on Monday, God willing, for a week or so, then onto Kajo Keji for another week or so, then back to Adjumani for another week or so, then back to Kampala for a few days before we all fly home in early December.
