Uganda
I have a REALLY deep and meaningful post up my sleeve … but i just don’t have the brain power today. So instead I will just say that it has almost suink in today that we are planning a trip to uganda in the summer. I can’t believe it might happen - but over the last cople of weeks things have started to slot into place … you know, in a God sort of way. As it stands at the moment we are going with the 3 boys … plus 5 young ladies [ages 13-25 approx].
Yesterday when i should have been spending my lunchtime at “outwork” preparing for the talk at alpha that evening i actually spent it reading the wikitravel entry on uganda. Very distracting.
Time to get planning. We are going to go to the orphanage I mentioned before, particularly
to spend time with and support our friends the Browns, and work in the orphanage. Hey, and who knows what else!
I have uploaded the video of the brown’s house that I showed at the last CCN Family Meeting at Parklands here, in case you fancy another viewing.
Also I have just got to mention that at alpha last night 4 people said that they want to get baptised - i’m pretty excited…

Slightly off topic - but has anybody seen “the last king of scotland” (in cinemas now) yet? It chronicles many of the recent events in Ugandas history - I’m thinking I should see it if only to get another perspective on the country.
