Yesterday we got to go to church in Mukono. I think it was the most spiritual experience I have ever had. Everyone came up and met us and were so nice! All the kids are adorable, I am going to want to take one home with me by the time I leave. Heck, I wanted one way before I ever came to Africa :)
The people in Uganda are so humble and generous. I met a lady named Beatrice at the market and she gave us a couple free mangoes even though she is trying to put eight children through school by herself and has nothing, she is so willing and happy to share what little she does have. I love everyone.
We had a team meeting last night to hear about all the projects that they are working on. Everything sounds so interesting and I want to help everyone. I think I will just try a few out and see what I am interested in the most. I'm excited to get started!
The internet connection here is not so good so I'm not sure if I will be able to post any pictures or not.. I'll try but everyone might just have to be patient and wait until I get home. I hope I have tons. I bought alot of memory and my goal is to fill it all up.
I can't believe I have been here for less than a week. It seems like I haven't been in the United States for like a month. Everyone says that the first couple weeks will be long but then it will go by so fast and it will be super hard to come home.
I seriously can't believe that this is my life! I'm still waiting for someone to pinch me and wake me up.
Pinch, Pinch, Pinch, nope its real. Sounds like you are having and amazing, interesing, exhausting time. Be safe and enjoy every minute. I am anxiously waiting for your next post.
