DAY 6 - A Day of Rest (we took our day of rest early)
We were finally able to rest today!! We were able to sleep in and spend quality time in the morning individually with God. Matt and Andrew experienced a Ugandan church for the first time.
The church was filled with energy and the pastor would preach and integrate praise music throughout his teaching. The pastor spoke about how God chooses ordinary people to do great things. He referenced the story of David and how he was the youngest of many brothers and seemed the like the least to become a king and carry out the powerful works of God. He wanted to remind the people that they can also carry out these great works because all things are possible with God. Everyone at the church was very welcoming and kind. They also required all new people to get up and introduce themselves.
Immaculate, our cook, in the picture below is unbelievable! She has prepared meals including, chicken, goat, beef, pork, beens, rice, chipote (fried tortillas, delicious!), coleslaw and much more.
All fresh and very tasty!!
She is very sweet and works everyday to prepare delicious meals for us! She is a very hard worker!
Getting ready to go to the market!!! We also had a new friend join us from Oklahoma, who had been here for 5 months already. Her name is Faith.
We decided to go to the market! These bags that you see below hold 200 lbs worth of beans, rice, or flour.
The market was filled with all kinds of fruts, vegetables, and clothes.
LOL oh Dani
We then went to the grocery store and bought some Ugandan Mango juice and imported chocolate from England. Always need some chocolate!
Along the side of the main street they have food, fish, meat and all kinds of stuff.
Matt and Andrew jamming out at the end of the night!
