Team Arrives Safely in Uganda

Thanks for praying for our team! They arrived safely this morning, exhausted but happy to be here. They spent the afternoon wandering around town, visiting the market and the craft shops and trying to stay awake. They lasted until about 8pm tonight and then went to bed when our kids did. We are so happy to have them here!

They will be updating their trip on their blog (http://www.aflcstudentmissions.blogspot.com/) if you would like to follow their adventures. Tomorrow they will travel to the village of Naigobya to teach a lesson they've prepared on Gideon. Nate is very disappointed that he will not be going with them. He is still quite sick with malaria. We haven't seen any improvement yet, but we have heard that it can take a long time to recover from a first bout with it. Some of our missionary friends have been down in bed with it for up to 2 weeks. Would you pray that his would not last that long? He has put so much into planning the schedule for the team and would love to be apart of it with them.

Thank you for all the encouraging emails! We are so thankful for your prayers.

Blessings,
Rhoda
