Paraa Safari Lodge

 Tuesday, March 15, 2022…. Today was the last day at the Paraa Safari Lodge.  We woke up at 7:00 to get ready for breakfast at 8:00.  We departed around 9:00 am.  The rest of the team saw a Kolibus (a black and white monkey) while I was laying in the back seat of the van trying to sleep.

Around 11:30 am, we stopped for lunch at Cafe Marlette.  The food there was delicious and plenty.  We went back out to the van and left for the Stevenson’s house.  Again, I sprawled out on the back seat of the van and went to sleep to avoid the high heat and humidity.  Therefore, I do not have much to write about today.

However, yesterday was our fun day out in the safari and the boat ride down the Nile!  God has truly blessed this earth with all that He has made!  Stop for a moment to look around and be thankful for all that you have.

Thank you EVERYONE who has been praying for us and this trip to the Amazing Country of Uganda.

God bless you all.

Jean

WHAT AN AWESOME God we serve! Today we had the privilege of going to BUKASA PRIMARY SCHOOL and doing some jja jja visits. We arrived in the morning and set up our clinic. I had the honor of being part of the Visual Aquity team with AmyLynn, Dina,Sunday and Alexander(a local young man). Today we served the students and faculty of Bukasa. It was so much fun working with them! They are so proud of their new glasses or sunglasses. They sang some songs for us and the kids enjoyed watching what we were doing and having their pictures taken. They love to see themselves in the pictures. In the afternoon I went with AmyLynn and a lovely young social worker named Nora. We walk from the school into the main part of the village to meet with the jja jja's. We stopped at the grocery store to pick up food gift bags. We take rice, beans, bread, corn meal,sugar for their families and we also took some toiletries and stuffed animals and an article of clothing for a child. They are so appreciative ...

Worship Ugandan Style

Sunday, July 20 The internet was down for the weekend, and our posts were lost in cyberspace on Monday, so hopefully these messages will reach you this time... After a breakfast of crepes with Nutella, we split into groups and headed to two different churches.  Rob and I, along with Sally, Norma Jean, and Donna went to Mutunga Chuch of God with Logan Stevenson.  The rest of the group attended Bakasa Church of God.  When we arrived at church, we were greeted at the van with joyful tribal shrieking.  They were so excited to see us!  We were escorted to the first two rows of chairs where worship had already begun.  These people really know how to praise God with song and dance... Lots of dancing!  A group of children sang and danced, another group performed a dance, and a young man wearing a "Snowboarder" shirt danced also.  We're certain that he has never hit the slopes, but after seeing his moves, Sally said she's pretty sure that Michael Jacks...

Monday,Monday....sounds like a song.  Today was catch up day.  Catch up on laundry, some more shopping, and napping!  I participated in all three!  So since this was a rest day I would like to reflect on the past few weeks and some of  the people I met that inspired  me.   Generous was the pastor of the church in  Kasubu.  This woman's faith and her servant heart for trying to make an impoverished village better.  She knew the only way possible was through her trust and love for her Savior Jesus Christ.  Her drive and love of God was inspiring. She has touched.my life forever.   Mosses and Sundae are our two drivers who have been with us all two weeks.  Mosses smile is so contagious that you can't be sad around him.  He is kind and soft spoken. He loves Jesus and his life is one of a true servant of God.  Sundae is the enforcer of the two.  Younger in years he took charge the one day when the crowd got unr...
