Stoaked about Safaris

Today was our second Sunday in Uganda, it is amazing how in twelve days we can go from strangers in a completely new enviroment to friends who arrive at church and immediatly have multiple children calling our names and running into our arms to welcome us. 


It has been such a sweet twelve days of learning and bonding.  As a team we have all been enjoying getting to know one another better having "team time" and sharing our lives with one another. I feel so incredibly blessed to have these sisters in christ with me on this adventure.  Each of us have a unique aspect and perspecive that makes our team stronger and more effective as we minister to the people of Uganda.


This week we have spent a lot of time playing with the Children at Faith and forming relationships with them.  It has been so neat to have time to get to know the children individually as we play guitar, sing, dance, blow bubbles, jump rope, kick a soccer ball, and pass out toys and clothes.  Our afternoons have been restful as we prepare for the evening services that happen everynight.  Everyone has had multiple opportunities getting to speak in front of an audience and we are beginning to get over some of our fears and feelings of inadaquacy as we preach the gospel to the people of God's House of Miracles. 


Tomorrow we are going on a real life African Safari!  We are so excited we can barely even see straight and I guarentee that the Lion King will be sung (multiple times).  We will not be able to connect to internet until Wednesday....so until then Hakuna Matata!


Prayer Requests:
1) Safe Safari
2) Bri really wants to see Giraffes
3) Relationships would continue to grow
4) God would be glorified in all that we do

Love and Blessings,
Megan and the TeamTeam
