Today was my last Sunday in Uganda. It was obviously very emotional and hard for me to realize that I will not see these people for a very long time, if ever. I have grown to truly love these faithful saints over the past 12 weeks. They are so strong, incredibly knowledgeable and trying so hard to do God's will. The circumstances in which they live are incredibly humbling. They rely on the Lord for EVERYTHING. I realize that my life is so easy compared to theirs. I sometimes take God for granted in my life when it is running smoothly. I have food, shelter, clothing, education and it becomes easy to forget Him. But these people who have so little, they rely on god EVERYDAY for EVERYTHING. And that makes them
so close to Him.
Anyway... they are incredible people and I will miss them terribly! I gave out my email address to lots of ward members and I hope through email and Facebook we can keep in contact.
The cute Branch President- what a sweet man! And he has only been a member of the church for 1 year and branch president for 6 months of that year!! He is doing a great job.
Tyrell and Emma. What a hoot! They are going to be great missionaries.
Esther is so cute! Love her
Oh Reagan. Looks very serious in this pictures but he is a crack up.
God be with you till we meet again!
