During our meeting with President Babeeyo we met three institute students:Victoria, Maurine and Sister T(can't pronounce her name). They are very beautiful, bright, intelligent people. And they are very well versed in the scriptures. We were very impressed.
Got to drive the new truck. WOW! It was intense. There should have been a box on our missionary application-"Do you like competitive driving?". Carol thought it was funny, but you don't see her behind the wheel. At first glance you would expect profound road rage, but not so. Everyone is respectful of the unwritten rules of driving etiquette and we all zip along at an "Indy-500" pace.
We are officially millionaires. We exchanged $700 for Ugandan shillings and got 1,100,000. But then an inexpensive meal is about 32,000.

ReplyDeleteWow!!! This will be such an awesome experience for you two. I'm pleased and surprised that the area is beautiful. What a wonderful service you will be giving to these young people, and what hope for a brighter future for them. We contribute every month, and I think it's time to double what we give. This is one small way that we, too, can support your efforts. Love you so much. Doris and Brian
