Dear All, Please keep us in prayer as we head off to Uganda to Queen Elizabeth national Park at the Jicana Lodge which is a tree house lodging system. -- hmmm.
We will be there for debriefing from the trip and then head to Kigali on August 14 before having dinner with Pastor Deo on Friday evening and then have a day at the market before heading to the airport to get home around 8am on August 16. We have enjoyed our time here and are anxious to come home and talk about things. This was a different trip and I am eternall grateful for those who financially supported me to go.
We will be doing some blogging when we get back and have updated the blog as best we can. There is a lot to process. The most important thing is that we are on God's time not our own. We have our list of things to accomplish and then God does something to say that this is what I need you to do. One final picture I need to take in Musanze, Rwanda is the volcanoes that have shown themselves out of the clouds and also a bush of sisal, which I will explain later. We had a wonderful lunch with Bishop John, his wife Harriet and a group of pastors and archdeacons that he knows and it was great.
Dinner was even nicer when we met with the committee of the Mother's Union and Inyakurama. They presented all the women with traditional Rwandan outfits that we will wear at the gala on october 17 and just a sweet time of fellowship of brothers and sisters in the Lord.
The coffee washing station was overwhelming. I cannot speak too much about it than I have because it is a processing thing and may end up with an article about it. What I can say is that I will never drink or sell coffee the same way after where we were what we saw how these coffee growers live. The bright spot is that they send us the best coffee beans, there is a field landscaped for a soccer field. It needs grass, lines and goals and then they can learn to play, share the Gospel and learn about coffee growing. Remember the movie Field of Dreams and this is it for the future of Rwanda, in small parts.
We thank you for your prayers. We thank you for your support for us and we thank you for sending us to give to these wonderful people in Rwanda.
We look forward to seeing you soon.
Sally
Please pray for: safe return flights, good time in Uganda, and decent roads. Pot holes in the USA are a welcomed sight.
