Beginning to Look Like Home, Vol.3

On July 10 as Daryl drove out of our gate on his way to the office, he saw the container we had shipped in April headed our way. We had been notified that it had made it to Mombasa, Kenya, but didn’t know it was that close. He immediately turned around and put out a community text to ask for help.

Within minutes ten people showed up to help which made the job so much easier. It reminded us of the loading we did in America and all the help you gave us there, too. What a blessing! Now on to the business of setting up house here!

Glimpse Into Uganda

LivingStone International University hosted its first Open House this month. LIU advertised the event on local radio and social network sites. Since it was their first, they weren’t sure how well it would be received or how many people to even plan for. 

It turned out to be a very successful day. There were over 100 visitors/ potential students from as far away as Kampala.  A poignant moment came when two Nigerian ladies who are teaching at the local Islamic University thanked us for bringing Christ to this area of the country.

Prayers Sought and Answered

·      Container came without having to be stored first and without heavy taxes. Thank you for praying!
