I'm Home Again

Im home!

I arrived on 10 August back in Uganda. I was overwhelmed by the welcoming of the Jones family, the UJV staff and children. It is so good to be back. I missed the traffic, the smell of burning carbage, sit around the candle and chatting with everyone who I missed the past 3 months. It was so cool to see the confirmations from the Lord in so many things. For me not being here, a lot changed at UJV. The Lord just moved forwards with everything and I can see that the Lord is good. The school is up and running and looks amazing. The teachers are so awesome as well. And the kids are cleverer than before.

I asked the Lord to show me what the next step is going to be in UJV for me. I felt He gave me a few ideas and it is amazing to see the confirmation, because that was also the same things that Suzanne had on her heart for me. Being back I am going to be involved in the medical side of the homes. A British friend of mine is coming over ( a nurse) to come and help teaching the mamas of first aid. And then also being responsible for the volunteers that are coming to help and serve here with us. So it is very excited to know and see the confirmation and the unity in the spirit.

This week friends of mine from Cape Town (Anel and louw) came and visit me over the weekend. It was so good to speak afrikaans in my own house and we had a real braai (bbq) in kampala. T-bone , pap and potato salad and off course melktert. It was amazing to have them here. We laughed so much. They drove with 4 x 4 from cape town to Uganda and it took them 7 days. It was so good to hear all the adventures they experience on the way. We are blessed to have them here alive. The best story for me is when the accents of the different cultures. The Canadians struggle to pronounce Anel, so later the evening Suzanne pronounce her name as anal....what a big laugh.

Looking forward to the weeks to come. We are going to be very busy, because we are going to have a lot of visitors and volunteers coming. The Fresh fire crusade is coming to visit and 3 of my british friends. Cant wait.

Big prayer request....what is our next step going to be.......
