Can you believe it...only nine more days until I have to leave Mbale! I am going to miss it here so much! The time flys when you are having fun! In the picture above is me and my good friend Livingston. Livingston left for Kampalla is might not be able to see me before i leave! Sadly to say this might be our good bye picture :( Livingston is a great man of God and ALWAYS has a smile on his face! Not to mention, he gave me motorcycle lessons!
Here are some pictures of my NEW Traditional African dress:
It is called a Gomez. You can where a gomez everywhere! Therefore i plan to where it all the time!
Besides a few pictures i also want to share something... while being here in Mbale I have been refreshed that the Lord dose not need me but, i am amazed to find that He wants me and is willing to use my for His purpose. Sometimes i get overwhelmed with how great poverty is in the world. Now Poverty is not just the person who is without food or a place to live but poverty lives in each one of us. How can I own or help something huge as poverty? But i was so relieved to know that God has it under control. With one breath God could heal the whole world, that is how much power He has....but how awesome it is that i can experience a glimpse of His glory but helping one person at a time. Therefore, I will stand on His Truth and I'll fight with His Strength until God will bring victory.
These Kids are some of my favorite kids in the world! there names are Peter and Faith. They are Moses Kids and they are a BLAST! Every chance I get i play with them! Peter is 3 and Faith is 7 (i think) they also have an older brother named Emma but he is not in the pictures...oops!

Leah... I love the pics. Those kids are soooo cute. I don't know how you're going to come back without a couple of them in your suitcase, but anyway. I just wanted to say how excited I am about what God is doing in your life. I can't wait for you to get back and share everything you've learned about yourself, Africa, the world, and God. I can't wait to learn from you. Love you lots!
