Peace in Uganda for this bird

Last night ended so well. Anna and I were eating our dinner with Lillian when all of the sudden we heard singing in the other room. The girls were beginning their night time bible study. And all i can say in response is....wow. I forgotten how beautiful African praise was. I crept in with my video camera to try and capture the beauty but you really had to be in the room. there was such a presance.
This morning I woke up at 630. I layed there for awhile to see if i could fall asleep but it wasnt happening. I decided to go sit on the deck and read. It was so cold this morning i had to put on socks and a jacket. So at seven i found myself sitting and watching the ugandian day start. I had been praying that God would send his spirit and he did at full force this morning. He sent it in peace and comfort. to be alone in a foriegn country but feel so comfortable is such a Godly thing.A little girl and her mother passed our room and the girl was adorable she was so joyful and laughed everytime i waved at her (the usual response from many of the children). Everyone else started stirring 1 1/2 later and we slowly got ready. I've been running on Africa time. aka 5 min= 2 hours. me and Mark had a great convo this morning about .... everything really then me anna mark and his wife, whose name i learn is Lyn not jane, set of to walk to King's Daughters and we ran into Rachel on our way there. Me anna and lyn helped the head cook Jane make lunch. I cut the cabbage : ) and thats about it haha. but we got to watch them cook and its hard work. I told them they shouldnt let me cook because i would probably ruin everything. Afterwards Anna Sally and i went into town. I love hanging out with everybody. It is so much about the relationships i'm starting here and all the conversation I'm having. The people here really are teaching me so much about life and just relaxing! I'm continually learning that i cant have every minute of the day planned out.
When we went to pick Mark up at St. Pauls church we were welcomed in to a prayer service. More singing! This time i couldnt stop from crying. they have so much faith and dependance.
Im excited about this weekend. We are driving to Nebbe and get to see Archbishop and mmam pheobe!! next week Allison is suppose to be putting me and anna to work. not sure doing what but im pumped!
two weeks isnt long enough. next summer 1 or 2 months. Sally claims i need to come longer to really be able to see uganda and see the people. she said she would even take me to gulu!
so i am praying for that. Another chance like this!!
Sally told me some of the stories of the girls who are at King's Daughters. It breaks my heart of course. God has really saved them and blessed them with a place like king's daughters and a mother like sally.
I need to go help make Mandazzi and tea now.
Sally is hungry.
p.s. Sally tried a dr. pepper today. she loved it of course. I love her because we continue to tease each other.
