On Saturday morning Casey and Hunter left with Ellen and Darla and some Ugandans to survey Gulu, a region about 4 hours drive north of Kampala. They are going to check on the possibility of planting some churches in the area. They should be back on Wednesday and I expect that they will have some great pictures and stories to share. I stayed in Kampala with Mark. We we able to sketch out a design for a water tower and start cutting metal on Saturday, although our workday was cut short by the loss of power. We spent the remainder of the day chatting and reading books (Mark teaches a class on Sunday mornings and I will be teaching a class on Women in the New Testament later this week).
Mark and I worshipped at the Kampala Church of Christ on Sunday. After worship we had a typical Ugandan meal which consisted primarily of cornmeal and rice with some soup poured over the top of it. We both had a full plate of food and a bottle of Coke and it cost us less than $3 total--awesome!
Mark is out in the garage today doing some metal work. I am inside typing up an outline and preparing material for the class I'll be teaching this week.
Everything is going pretty smoothly so far. Thank you for your prayers and support.
