Church
in Africa is quite an experience. It is long, loud, and full of
movement. The people seem very spirit-filled. Although I think their
Bible knowledge is much less than ours, their love for God and faith
seems much greater. How do we go home and learn from their example?
If Liz and I just leave with a greater understanding of life in Africa
and do not change the way we live, this trip was a bust.
Sunday School
It
is the rainy season in Uganda, and even though the forecast said no
rain when I checked before I left, we have had rain in the afternoon for
the last four days. Today
I was in our room when it started. It was torrential. I'm not sure
what the children do during these downpours, but I hope it stops before I
have to leave here in a half hour. We have had no power all day! I'm
ready to go home.
This
evening the kids performed for us. Each dormitory, there are six, sang
a couple of songs (which of course included dance), and the "big boys"
did a skit. It's hard to believe only one "mama" is in charge of each
dorm. But it was joyful to watch.
Dinner was finally ready at 8:00 and
I went to bed after.
