For those who know Winston from the choir

Winstons email was stolen, please disregard the request to help a sick family member with money. Winston and his family are doing fine.

Eric

Doing great!!!

Hello everyone!! We are sorry we have been absent for a few days but the internet of Uganda is not the internet of the USA (Kevin we need you here). It has taken me 11 minutes just to get to the post page of the blog. The last few days have been amazing! We have been to several villages, visited several churches (one in Jinja just 2 yrs ago had 5 members and now has 150, PRAISE GOD!!!), visited a womens facility, visited Humble school (which is beautiful (my plug) and still needs support (Please tell your friends!!! Contact Rebecca for more info), visited two villages in Gulu (Layibi (lay-e-b) and Opit (o-peet)). The highlight of our trip is getting to stay with the children in the Music academy, all of which are doing great (they say “Hello to our friends in Texas!!”) and making new friends. The Bishop and his wife have been so wonderful to us and can’t wait for more to join on the next trip. Uganda in a beautiful country, the people are fun and full of smiles and have a faith in our Lord and Savior that I have only witnessed in the Bible. Please continue to pray for them. I was going to send some personal emails but it takes so long, so….. I will just say we miss you all, love you all (especially our Nick and Mady) and cannot wait to see and hold you again. We will be traveling to some other villages in search of other choir members so please pray as this is incredibley hard because you cannot bring back every child. Thank you so much to all who have helped us and the people of Uganda both financially and in prayer. We will write more when we can and can’t wait to share with you all that we have wittnessed and participated in. Have a blessed week!!!!
Love Eric and Rebecca
