Progress...


Well, we have been navigating through the steps of making decisions...saying yes, and saying no, and the no's are ALWAYS harder.  I had forgotten how difficult that was, as I have been away from my business for awhile.  Finding a facility, and staffing that facility, has been a grueling piece of this process, but we are beginning to see through the fog and will have much to share upon returning home

The best news is we are getting a clear picture, a true sense of what lies ahead.  We are excited to share our decisions with everyone at home in Canada.  Please continue to think of us and to keep us in your prayers as we do our business here.  I hope that everyone had a glorious Easter and thank you for all the words of encouragement and the trust and confidence you have placed in us to be good stewards of your generosity.  

Char, Jess, Verna, Bruce and Norma, our friends from summer... Prisca, Pastor Kazadi, Elizabeth, Sally and all the girls from Kings daughters...they all send you their best.  We have made some great friends here in Uganda and although our time here is drawing to a conclusion we will be back soon enough... with a place to build our dreams, to invest in the people here, especially the children, and to enjoy the beauty that is Africa.  

I have had an opportunity on this trip to meet many more wonderful Ugandans...they have a generous spirit that is unique to them.  The grace that the people of Uganda possess is an attribute I admire very much, and it is such a special and admirable model for all of the world to discover.  

WE HAVE AGAIN BEEN BLESSED!
JULY IS ON THE HORIZON...
