Back Home In Uganda



We arrived in Entebbe via London on March 10th and drove to Masaka the next day to face a house full of bins and boxes.  So began the process of settling into our present home in the Timothy Centre Guest House compound.  We have thoroughly enjoyed the peaceful green hills surrounding the centre, waking up to the singing of the birds and falling asleep with the sound of frogs and crickets croaking melodiously in the valley below us.

Our days have been filled with a variety of domestic activities and we’ve also begun to resume our work and ministry responsibilities.  Last week we hosted our Canadian director Ray Sutton and his wife Pat, and laid plans for the next few months of construction and programs here at Timothy. 
We’re in the beginning of the rainy season, and we’re glad for some sunshine today after three days of heavy rain.  Easter found us slogging through the mud to our vehicles, then driving through pot-holed roads to attend an Easter church service in Masaka.  It was worth the effort and we capped the day by celebrating with a special Canadian style Easter dinner with our Canadian collegues (Megan & Paul, Lizabee), Megan’s parents who were visiting from Canada and some Ugandan friends.
