WE MADE IT!

PRAISE GOD! We all made it safe and sound!! Thank you so much for all of the prayers! They definitely came in handy!! The first plane ride went smoothly, but was 1 hr behind. Thankfully, it did not affect our connecting flight from London! We had plenty of time and made it safely to Entebbe. There was another team on board from London coming to Uganda! They all applauded when we landed safely :) lol. Unfortunately, not all of the flights luggage made it, but praise God that a majority of ours made it & that we made it safely! So please be praying that we get the rest of our luggage soon! But if not, we have a saying from the last trip....T.I.A. (This Is Africa)...so you go with the flow and just say, "Hey, TIA!" *with a huge smile on your face :D!!! But God well prepared us by packing extra stuff on our carry on that will come in handy! And only 2 of the 7 of us don't have our luggage. Our other team members have been so gracious to lend us anything we may need! God has us covered!! The bus ride was only about 2 hours from Entebbe to Jinja thanks to our wonderful drivers! We got here about 3 am Ugandan time and crashed! We slept in until about 11:30 am and had a delicious lunch with the Segners, McMorris', and interns Katie and Greg! We ate Posho (which is almost like mashed potatoes, but is like corn meal made of maize) and beans (which tasted just like Mexican charro beans) So YUM! Now we are enjoying some rest/quiet time, preparing for the work the Lord has for us within the coming days! I am so excited to be back in Jinja, it literally feels like I am coming home. Thank you all for your support in getting us here! I pray that God continually uses you all to be a blessing and to be blessed!! All for His Glory! Keep the prayers coming! Thank you with lots of love! Ana Banana!
