Daily life

Time for a few pictures to fill you in on what's been happening around here! Our family has experienced a lot of change in the last few months, and it's finally starting to take a toll on our health. Five of us have had malaria in the past few weeks, including me (for the first time!). Despite all the changes, we have enjoyed our visitors, our move, and our quick trip to the game park :) Enjoy the pictures!

Tree climbing is the new favorite past time around here. Thankfully our new home has lots of them!

Andrew Magel and Kenneth spent a loooong time slaughtering a goat to roast in celebration of our returning team members, Andrew and Kerri Meador. Check out their blog for more pictures of Kacheri. www.joyofmine.blogspot.com

Working on Kerri and Andrew's hut in the rain.

Is he not just the cutest thing?? Acuka is now 16 months and such a fun baby. He took two steps yesterday, but shows no inclination to repeat it :

Story time with Andrew. Selah took a shine to him and was always following him around :)

One of our little girl goats, Barli.

On the way to Kidepo, the local game park.

Gorgeous!

Look closely! I think there were six lions that came out of the tall grass, lay down on the road and posed, and then disappeared again.

Church under the tree. Church planting is going well and continues to be a joy for Kenneth.

Building time! We recently hosted a team from The Gathering Place church in Pineville, LA. We really appreciated their hard work, generosity, and joyful spirits.

With so many white people in one place our yard was constantly surrounded by onlookers calling our names.

Andrew and Kerri working hard :)

Our version of cliff jumping!

That's it for now, folks! Please continue to lift us up in prayer as we labor here in Karamoja. Lately we have really felt beaten down, so pray that we will have strength to endure and persevere. As always, your emails, phone calls, and letters are cherished.
