July 13

13 of July.. I woke up with a heavy heart very emotional at 4am. I think it finally hit me i was here. we were to go to Kagoma Gate today and I didn't know what to expect.This was a day of teaching. We had two other mission teams with us. Soul Hope and Welcome home. The welcome Home group worked as a translater for us. They did a fabulous job. We went from home to home and hung nets, spray mosquito repelant, and talked with the adults about prevention and symptomes. It was wonderful.
  Though that is what we were to do. I think I learned so much about the people in the village it was an amazing experience. I met a young girl around 14 that was abandoned by her parents. I was told this is unusual for Ugandans to do. They are very loyal people. But she couldn't go to school cause she didnt have any money and she raised herself. Her name was Lucy. She is a very shy young girl so pray for her please.
   We put nets in almost 100 huts out of 300. so for one day that is major. It was very disheartening when we had to tell some families that we couldn't do there homes that day. We made sure they new we were coming back for them. Some were more upset than others for sure.
    I think the funniest thing was the little babies that were walking but, not talking or potty trained walked around with no pants on. It was so cute. I picked a little boy up and my friend Tressie was like,"be careful he will pee on you." HaHa So cute. I can't express how emotional being there made me feel but I can tell you this. It was the best and worst experience of my life. Best because I am so blessed to meet these amazing people. Worst because though i would love to trade my life for thiers, I can't.
  We ate lunch on our way back to the Segners. PB&J, chips, and bananas. Then we had the best evening with music and devotion and Prayer. But before this I had a complete break down. I tried to call home but my Aunt Jewel left her phone at My Aunt Kathy's, and I couldn't talk to the kids. I had to leave the house I bold like a baby. Bobby messaged me and told me the kids were at his parents so I got really exited. when I called them the kids had just left. Talk about being dissapointed. Wow. It was horrible. However I finally did get totalk with them a while. I was so happy and felt so much better. So word to the wise if a family or friend is out of the country keep up with your phones.






this Bible verse I fund today really hung in my heart
Proverbs 13:20 Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, But whoever walks with fools will suffer harm!


I need prayer for my family. That Bobby will stay strong through this. I know he misses me. I am getting closer with my God and my path is mine to travel.
