Greetings from shaky Uganda!
We tried to blog last evening but we could not access the blog due to internet issues. This morning we have had a time with the children doing their Friday morning Praise and Worship. It is so nice to hear them singing and praising our Lord together.
On Thursday, July 4th at 10:30PM we were shaken awake by the house rumbling and creaking! The animals were not pleased with being woken up. We wondered what exactly it was. Neil thought it might be monkeys on the roof or maybe an earthquake. We went back to sleep only to be woken again at 1:15am with another shake. The two earthquakes were 5.7 and 5.4. There was no damage to the children's home or any of the housing units. There was some damage to the secondary school where they are still in the process of building. Thanking the Lord everyone is safe.
We are taking a break today and heading to Jinja to see the Nile. We will have some very busy days when we get back. Continue to pray for safety for the team.
