The Sassers are Coming to Town

I am so excited to welcome the Sasser family back to Kaihura tomorrow! After being gone for almost a year the Sassers are bringing a volunteer team back to Kaihura, and everyone here will be so happy to see them! This trip is especially exciting because Peter Ochiel the founder and director of Action Ministry, where the Sasser family is currently serving will be coming to Kaihura as well.This will be the first time Peter and Faith will meet and we are so excited for these two amazing people to be able to meet, share ideas, and learn from each other. This is going to be a great time of visiting, sharing, learning, and giving, and I can't wait!

Rain Rain Go Away


Unlike most of the United States, Uganda only has two seasons. Dry and rainy. At the moment we are at the end of the rainy season, or so we thought. But this particular rainy season has been hanging on with a vengeance. March through May is supposedly the milder of the rainy seasons, as compared to September, October, November where is rains everyday no matter what. While the two very definite seasons make weather predications pretty easy, I really do miss the four distinct seasons of North America. Especially Autumn. 
It's interesting this little things that I find myself missing, like doorknobs, and Autumn. It makes me wonder what little things I'll miss from Uganda, maybe the hundreds of colorful birds, or the beautiful sunsets. It seems like no matter where I go I will be missing something.

Up and Around!

You can read more of Everest's story here.
So excited to see Everest in his new wheelchair! Before this wheelchair Everest was completely bedridden every day, all day. I am so thankful to have been able to witness the amazing changes God is doing in Everest's life. I also want to thank everyone who has invested in Everest's life, thank you for letting God use you!
