It is about 1 am here in Wisconson as I am preparing to fly out of Chicago tomorrow afternoon for Uganda. It seems like this day has taken forever and I can't believe it is finally here! I thought I would be scared and nervous, but at this point in time I am excited, and a little stressed. I just hope that traveling goes smooth and that I get from the airport in Uganda to where I am staying safely.
This past weekend I had the chance to meet a Ugandan family in Janesville and have dinner with them! Her name is Joy, and her husband's name is Gideon. They have three beautiful little boys. The whole family is absolutely amazing. She made me a traditional Ugandan meal and gave me some helpful hints to get by in the country. In addition to all this information she provided many contacts for me within Uganda to visit or incase I ever need anything. I will hopefully get the chance to travel to her home village and meet her family one weekend. She is also trying to start a Center for Positive Thinking in Kampala. There is a pastor there already working on it and I am going to try and visit him. That would be a great opportunity to get involved in later. It was just a blessing to meet all of them!
I will hopefully get a chance to write when I get there in a couple days! I should arrive Wednesday night. Thanks again for all your support!
Grace and Peace
