no worries


HEY!
We made it safely to Kampala yesterday (Friday) around 10 p.m. After a short night's sleep, we woke up and headed to Kagadi. Although the trip was supposed to be five hours, there were a couple problem, as well as many blessings along the way. Our bus broke down in a remote village, and while we were waiting for a mechanic, children flocked to us. We instantly pulled out the bubbles and soccer ball; even Mrs. Chris played soccer. Soren and Dr. Matt got to share the Gospel with two Ugandan adults. Two hours later, we were on our way to Kagadi again. Although driving on the road was much like a wooden roller coaster, we completed our journey without any more complications. We were so wonderfully greeted at the church by Pastor Francis, his wife Topi, and members of their church. Then, the university gave us our room assignments and we soon retreated to our huts. Tomorrow will be a relatively busy day, with many services planned. Please pray for Pastor Aaron who left his sermon notes at home. We will also be visiting a prison where several people will give their tesimonies. Thank you for all of your prayers so far, and hope you will keep us in your thoughts for the remainder of our trip.

Glad to hear you made it safely and that God allowed you to break down so you could lift others up. Aaron has so many sermon notes stored in his heart, that he will be a real blessing to all...we love you...love the picture. Send more pictures if you can.

God is already showing His faithfulness to lead you in the way that brings Him most glory. Way to go team with turning seemingly negative into definite positives for expanding the Kingdom of Heaven! We love you all and stay in a continuous state of prayer. Go boldly in the Name of Jesus!!! Praying for God to reveal to Pastor Aaron just what to preach. Perhaps He wanted a different message. Love you all.
