A lot has happened in just over one week. Once we got back from
Mombasa, I taught the children the bible story about Jonah and the Big
Fish. It was quite an enjoyable experience and I look forward to my
next story this week. The children are one of the most attentive groups
I've ever seen, especially the small ones. They're so smart and I just
pray for more opportunities to come back and work with them some more
in the future.
The rest of the week was just a whirlwind of games, crafts, activities,
and home improvement projects (we finished the garden!). We've all grown
attached to the children and are having a hard time thinking about
leaving them. We've been trying to remind them that we're leaving this
weekend for BDI in Uganda, but we aren't sure they quite understand.
It'll be a painful thing, leaving. I need to continue to remind myself
that Uganda is a new beginning, another place where we can do some good
for another group of children. But I've made a vow to myself that I
will try my hardest to return to LDO at this time next year, if the Lord
is willing. It was in His plan to lead me here with the others on the
team this summer, so I just need to see if another trip is in His plan
for me next summer.
