It's off to UGANDA we go!
We leave in less than 12 hours, so we'd appreciate your prayers as we begin this next adventure. Please pray for safety, health- physical, mental, spiritual, for team unity, and that we spend each day doing exactly what God would have us do, learning what He would have us learn, experiencing all He would have us experience. We can't wait to share with you when we return. Unfortunately we have heard the internet access is very minimal at best so we are not sure how often, if at all, we will be able to update while we are there, but we will do our best if we are able! But if not, we will be sure to update you when we return. Once again we realize how amazing a life lived in God's plans can be, it's quite the adventure! Our team: Elisabeth, Katrine, Magnus, Audun, Kelly, Brett, Cortney. Thank you for your prayers and support! Have a blessed month! See our tentative schedule below the video for more specifics to help you pray. :)Below is a video clip taken at our church here in Trondheim. The Watoto Ugandan children's choir held a concert and it was so amazing. All the children are orphans of parents who have mostly died of aids and have been taken into this Christian organization to receive a close family of "parents" and "siblings". They were precious, and filled with the joy of Jesus. It made us look forward even more to experiencing this vibrant culture firsthand and meeting its beautiful people.
