NGO and Grad. Party

The past several days have been full of rain, which has been nice in the evening b/c it means cooler temperatures and better sleep... but it can get quite frustrated when the rain does not stop during the day resulting in trips to the market leaving us covered from head to toe in thick, red, african mud :(

We were able to have a very informative meeting with Pastor Kaaya and his wife Deborah the other day, during which we learned a great deal about to get get our NGO registered. Kaaya also allowed us to borrow and copy the objectives that he used in order to register the New Life Center. So now that we have a copy and more of an idea of what our objectives need to look like, as well as a copy of the Children's Act, we will have an easier time coming up with offical objectives of our own.

Tomorrow we will be travelling to Kampala in order to meet up with Agatha, and fellow missionary and Jesus-lover. SShe lives just outside of Kampala and has invited us to stay with her for the weekend and tour her facilites to get an idea of what ours may look like.

We met a very friendly 23yr. old Ugandan girl named Natasha, who we are supposed to be meeting with on Tuesday, in order to form a relationship with her and hopefully be a source of ministry in her life.

Hey AmyRose!!! Cool...ringworm? REally and you are baking cookies! I love the cookie idea...take them to the beach with you to start up the conversation! You sound great...I do hope that you have learned to NOT EAT Raw chicken. Yuck!!! You do know that pork has worms in it unless you cook it completely done? Greta to finally get to read your updates. Love and prayers, Greta Bradley

Stacie, looks like you and AmyRose are having quite an adventure living on Uganda Time. Storks, no less. I look forward to seeing your progress with the orphanage and reading of your further adventures. May God hold you in the palm of his hand.
