Every day in Uganda is good day but today was extra wonderful! So many great things happened; too many to list. Children were treated by Dr. Kent, the youth painted the P7 classroom, we went to the market and bought goats to gift the CCLS-U graduates from last school term, visited with many of the sponsored students, and sooooooo much more!!!!
As we mentioned yesterday, the internet has been super slow this trip so we haven't been able to post as many pictures as usual.
A few take aways:
The sponsored children are the most grateful children. They know that their gift of education is the best gift they could receive. They even pray for their sponsors each day and their prayer requests include passing their exams and for wisdom. WOW!
Each Saturday, the people who sell in the market work so hard to make a living. They are very curious when we arrive and we cause quite a stir!
Baby goats are adorable!
Jinja is a bustling town full people working and living - it's so colorful, busy, dense, fun...
Ugandan babies are so sweet and precious!
We LOVE these people!!!!!!!!
The ground was prepared for planting because of the rains - God is good all the time...
Enjoy the pictures!
"Blessed is the person who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord. He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit." Jeremiah 17: 7-8

Kawete, Uganda Day 3
GToday was an eventful day! We enjoyed working more with the sponsored students. We participated in QUIZ DAY where the students participate in a contest with questions about their different subjects and of history! We also watched the Preschoolers do a music lesson and it was so joyful and fun. The garden was plowed and hopefully planting of corn, beans and soybeans will begin soon. Dr. Killian worked in the Clinic again. Malaria was present with 4 cases in children and one parent. Dr. Killian also did a home visit for a 58 year old man who fractured his hip and is waiting for surgery. He gave him blood pressure medication and Ibuprofen for pain. We helped teach one of the mother's of a student how to make the washcloths with knitting. She will be able to make them and sell in the market. Tomorrow will be another day with a visit to the local market to purchase goats for the graduates from last year. We will begin painting the school and maybe help plant the garden.
