It's our last night here in Uganda and it has been an incredibel trip. God has done some awesome work in the lives of our team members by giving them all a glimpse of His heart for those who have less than us. We were able to serve many people here but in the end we were more blessed than anything we accomplished or gave to them.
Fred, Gerry and Jolene were able to finish the milking stall for the cows which will be installed once we leave. Fred is standing beside their work of art in the pic below. Shawn was able to spend some time with Hulda (see pic below) who was the little girl that he had the blessing of rescuing with Pete and Pita last time he was in Africa. Hulda was around 3 months old when she was found abandon in the streets. Now she is a healthy little girl surrounded with love and care, which is just one small taste of what happens every day here at Noah's Ark Children's home.
We also got to spend a day travelling to Jinja which is where the Nile river begins at the mouth of lake Victoria. What an amazing and powerful river as it takes 3 months for water to travel all the way to the Mediteranean Sea. On the way we got to enjoy a Ugandan specialty - 'Chicken on a Stick." Everyone enjoyed it and some even tried some 'Chicken livers on a stick.
Thanks to everyone who prayed for us and followed us through this blog. We will have many more stories to share with you once we get home. See you all Thursday night.
Love - Team Canada in Uganda
