Double Blessings

The teachers in our schools in Kibaale were feeling very blessed this week, as they received a volunteer from Canada to help in the Special Unit class in the primary school…. as well as a heavy downpour of much needed rain.

Natalie arrived from our church in Canada and will be helping Rosebell and Jessica, our Special Unit teachers who teach a group of students who are hearing impaired and have other learning disabilites.

This is the first week of Term 3, the last term of school for 2010.  September is also the month when the rainy season usually begins, after 3-4 months of very dry and dusty weather.  People have been praying for the rains to come, as seeds need to be put in the ground for the new growing season and water for household use is in very short supply.  As Natalie’s arrival coincided with the beginning of the rains, she is regarded as a very special visitor who will bring much blessing!
