Went to a rock curry today. It's so sad that people in poverty have to work like that- it is so dangerous, yet it is their only way to live. We met some joyful widows!

We experienced an African rainstorm then began worshiping God while soaking wet. Such a great experience!

These children in this village were very timid and fearful of us at first, but after a fun time of field day games they finally warmed up to us. Our visit was worth more to them that words can express.

This little girl Fiona broke my heart. She is slowly dying from HIV AIDS and she was very quiet because she was so sad. I prayed over her and asked God to overwhelm her with love, hope and healing. We gave her a necklace and told her she was beautiful and she finally gave us a smile!

We had a great conversation with these orphans about their story and what God has done through that. I'm so thankful to be here and to have met the people that have touching stories and lives. More about my trip can be found at tconsoccer.blogspot.com :)

After 36 hours of traveling, we finally made it to our Hotel in Uganda and this is how we feel!! We got to ride in the big planes that I've always seen in movies. We started in the morning and because of the time differences, we arrived in Amsterdam in the morning, then arrived in Africa really late at night. We went through a few days really quickly with the time difference!

Time to go to Uganda!!! We had a layover in the Netherlands. Do you think that I can now say I've been to Europe?

I went on a wonderful walk and listened to a John Piper sermon. It was so fun and life is so beautiful when you're in nature with Jesus.

I got to be Princess Aurora at work today! The little girls were so adorable, but to my surprise they were very shy towards me. The theory is that they were so excited to see me that they were overwhelmed, but I will be the subject of their conversations for the next weeks! I took tons of pictures with all the little girls and I don't think I've ever been told "you're so beautiful" so often!

April 12, 2013


We had a free night at Casa Bonita with my building, Red Cloud. It was really fun- Audrey felt like she was on vacation in Florida! I left my number at the table for the cliff diver with a kiss and he ACTUALLY responded! Talking to him could be an awesome or terrible idea..
